Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Generously grease and lightly flour a 10-inch Bundt pan to ensure easy release. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Add the vegetable oil, eggs, orange juice, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Using an electric mixer, beat until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Gently fold in the fresh cranberries and orange zest, distributing them evenly throughout the batter. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading evenly. (1 minute)

06

Step

Bake in the preheated oven for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (60 minutes)

07

Step

Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. (75 minutes)

For an extra touch of elegance, dust the cooled cake with powdered sugar before serving.
Feel free to use frozen cranberries if fresh cranberries are not available. Do not thaw before using. Substitute some of the vegetable oil with melted butter for a richer flavor.
A glaze made with orange juice and powdered sugar would also be delicious drizzled over the cooled cake.

    Make sure your baking powder is fresh! That could be why your cranberries sank. Also, try tossing them in a little flour before adding them to the batter.

  • Glennie Beier

    I added a cream cheese frosting to mine, and it was divine!

  • Zoie Kassulke

    This recipe is a keeper! The cake was moist and flavorful, and everyone loved it.

  • Drake Kuhic

    Yes, you can use a loaf pan, but adjust the baking time accordingly. Start checking for doneness after 45 minutes.

  • Marisa Cruickshank

    The orange zest really makes this cake special.

  • Jonathan Rippin

    My cranberries sank to the bottom. What did I do wrong?

  • Raheem Rosenbaum

  • Ellie Hansen

    Could I use a different type of pan?
