This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie (Dorie’s Anytime Cakes) recipe is Mix-It-Up Citrus Loaf Cake. It is do called because you can use any combination of citrus fruits that takes your fancy.
I used grapefruit and orange, as that is what I had to hand. Both juice and zest are used in this cake. The cake contains olive oil as the fat component, but you can also use a mix of oil and butter.
The cake can be optionally glazed with marmalade, which I of course did - I love a sticky, shiny cake.
This cake may not be a looker, but I absolutely loved it. The outside is crisp and caramelised, the inside is soft and moist and citrussy - count me in. Definitely a make again cake.

Love the gorgeous color you got ! Yes, this was a lovely cake and frankly pretty easy to knock out. I always enjoy reading Dorie's notes about Paris and the citrus shop she described really had me on board for this cake. I love that you used grapefruit too - I love that flavor !
So glad it was such a huge success...I also think the marmalade isn't optional haha! (Kim)
This one is so good! I love the look of yours!
(hit publish too soon!) Was also going to add that this cake needs a glaze!
yum, yum. this one has a great crust and crumb!
My husband would have loved the grapefruit version as he loves the fruit. I will have to try that next time.
Looks delicious! I'll have to try a grapefruit version now.
