Author Notes
I got this recipe from one of the ladies I work with. She told me the recipe off the top of her head and told me it's just too easy. Turns out it is!
The crumb is amazingly moist. It's not overly sweet, but just enough to be addicting. You could eat it as a snack too, as I am doing now.
I could see some orange zest going really well in this cake. I plan on making it again and again, given that it just takes one bowl and just minutes to bring together.
And bonus! This recipe works at high altitude. —stephanieRD
