🥮 How To Make Ina Garten Orange Pound Cake  

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and prepare a 10-inch tube pan by greasing and flouring it.
2. In a bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda, and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat together sugar and butter until fluffy. Then add eggs one by one, followed by vanilla extract and orange zest.
4. Gradually add flour mixture and sour cream to the bowl, alternating in three parts, starting and ending with flour. Mix until smooth.
5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
6. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then carefully remove it and let it cool completely on the rack.
7. While the cake cools, make the orange syrup by boiling orange juice, sugar, and zest until syrupy. Remove from heat and whisk in butter gradually.
8. Drizzle the warm syrup over slices of the cooled cake.

💭 Recipe Tips:

• Use room temperature ingredients for best results. This ensures even mixing and a smoother batter.
• Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense texture. Mix just until the ingredients are incorporated to maintain a tender crumb.
• Adjust baking time if using a different pan size. Thinner pans may require less time in the oven, while thicker pans may need more time.
