NUTTY FRUIT BUNDT CAKE WITH AN ORANGE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F Grease and flour a bundt pan, set aside. In a medium bowl, mix all streusel ingredients and set aside. (NOTE: We yielded 2 cups of streusel).
• MAKE THE CAKE:In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and baking soda and set that aside. Have the measured orange juice ready also.
• In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed beat together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in zest and vanilla.
• Reduce mixer speed to low and alternately beat flour mixture and orange juice into egg mixture, beginning and ending with flour. Gently fold in blueberries (or raisins). (NOTE: When we made this using raisins, it yielded just over 4 cups of batter).
• Spoon half of the cake batter into prepared bundt pan. Sprinkle with half of the streusel mixture. Top with the remaining cake batter and then streusel. Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
• Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for 10-15 minutes. While cake is cooling, stir together glaze ingredients in a small bowl until smooth. When cake has cooled, invert onto a serving plate. When cooled to room temperature (about 20 more minutes), drizzle with the glaze.

ORANGE POPPY BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 10- to 15-cup bundt pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda and set aside. In a large bowl, beat the butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the orange zest. Then beat in the eggs and egg yolks 1 at a time. Beat in the poppy seeds and vanilla extract. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture.
• Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 45 to 50 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool for 15 minutes, then flip the cake out and let it cool completely.
• For the glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and orange zest and juice. Drizzle the cake with the glaze to serve.

ORANGE BLOSSOM BUNDT CAKE WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE GANACHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a Bundt pan with cooking spray; if your Bundt pan isn't nonstick, oil it and dust with flour.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Whisk until well combined.
• In another bowl, stir together the buttermilk, orange zest and orange blossom water.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on medium speed until light yellow and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Reduce the speed and mix in the eggs, one at a time. Mix in half the flour mixture, then all of the buttermilk mixture, and, finally, the remaining half of the flour; at each step, mix until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
• Bake on the middle rack until golden brown and just beginning to pull away from the edges, 35 to 40 minutes. Cool the cake in the pan on a rack for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the ganache: Bring the cream to a simmer in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, about 3 minutes.
• While the cream is heating, combine the white chocolate chips, orange zest and orange extract in a heat-proof glass bowl, and set the bowl over the cream. When the cream reaches a simmer, pour it over the chocolate and let sit for 1 minute to begin to melt; then stir with a rubber spatula until smooth. Allow to cool slightly, about 10 minutes, stirring every couple minutes to ensure even cooling.
• Invert the cake onto a rimmed plate and drizzle the top with ganache. Serve warm or at room temperature.

• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack, about 30 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert carefully onto a serving plate or cooling rack.
