Ingredients
  

For the cake

  • 2 cups All purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 3/4 cup Yogurt plain
  • 1/2 cup Milk or almond milk
  • 1 cup Sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup Blood orange juice
  • 1/2 cup Vegetable oil or olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Blood orange zest
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract

For the glaze

  • 2 cup Powdered sugar
  • 2 or 3 tbsp Blood orange juice

Instructions
 

  • Pre heat the oven at 350 F

To make the cake

  • In a bowl, combine all the wet ingredients. Mix everything well.
  • Mix all the dry ingredients in another bowl.
  • Gently fold in all the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Batter should be just combined but not over mixed.
  • Grease bundt pan with butter or oil, transfer the batter to the pan and tap 1-2 times to avoid any air pockets.
  • Bake for 40-43 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, with few tender crumbs attached. Let cake cool at least 15-30 minutes before removing.

To make the glaze

  • For orange glaze, combine powdered sugar and orange juice and mix to a thick consistency.
  • Once the cake cools down, add orange glaze on top.
