Low-Fat Orange Pudding Cake
---------------------------
This cake separates into two layers: a custard layer on the
bottom, topped with a spongelike cake layer. Yummy!
2 T. butter, room temperature
1/4 c. granulated sugar
2 medium eggs, separated
2 T. fresh orange juice (or you may use orange
juice concentrate)
1 t. grated orange zest
2 T. all-purpose flour
1 c. skim milk
Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a standard-sized
loaf pan or 1-quart dish with nonstick cooking spray.
Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat
egg yolks until thick and lemon colored; add to butter mixture
along with orange juice and zest. Fold in flour; stir in milk.
Batter will be very thin.
In separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff (you may wish to add
1/4 t. cream of tartar to egg whites before doing this).
Fold egg whites gently into orange mixture until well blended.
Pour into prepared dish and bake 35-37 minutes (top of cake will
just start to golden a bit, but do not bother to test this cake
as it will not test properly).
Let cool thoroughly; refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving. (
