Recipe ingredients
- Pound Cake Batter
- 1 cup (250 mL) unsalted butter* , room temperature
- 1 cup (250 mL) fine sugar*
- 4 large eggs*
- 1 cup (250 mL) all-purpose flour*
- Marmalade
- 3 seedless oranges, cut into quarters
- ½ cup (125 mL) fine sugar
- Sufficient quantity, water
- Garnish
- ½ cup (125 mL) sour cream*
- ¼ cup (60 mL) maple syrup*
- 4 mint tops
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) unsalted butter*
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a stand mixer, mix the butter with the sugar until a creamy consistency is obtained.
Add in the eggs one at a time, then the flour and mix well.
In an oiled metal loaf pan, bake the pound cake batter in the oven for 45 minutes; remove from the oven and allow to cool.
Slice or cut the cake into a rectangle and fry each side in a little butter until the cake is golden.
Pierce the oranges with a knife; place in a pot with the sugar and cover with water.
Let simmer over moderate heat until the oranges are nice and soft and the cooking juices turn a little syrupy.
Put the mixture in a food processor and process until it reaches purée consistency.
In a salad bowl, place the sour cream with the maple syrup and whisk well.
In a plate, place the pound cake, add a heaping spoonful of the marmalade, a drizzle of sour cream and a mint top.
Suggestion
If there’s leftover marmalade, place in pots and into the freezer so it keeps longer.* We recommend Selection and Irresistibles products.
