About This Recipe
This easy-to-make orange poppy seed cake will be enjoyed by both adults and children. Lots of poppy seeds, a refreshing orange aroma, and a delicate texture—what could be better? Kefir and sunflower oil in the batter make the cake moist and porous. If desired, you can add finely chopped walnuts and soaked raisins to the poppy seed filling. A little tip: be sure to taste the oranges before adding them to the batter. If they are a bit sour, increase the sugar in the recipe to 150 grams. The finished cake can be stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container for about 5 days.

Preparation Steps
Step 1
Prepare the poppy seed filling. Place poppy seeds, sugar, orange zest in a saucepan, add milk and place over medium heat. Stirring constantly, cook for 6-8 minutes until the milk is absorbed into the poppy seeds. Transfer the mixture to a sieve to drain any remaining liquid.
Step 2
Grind the poppy seed filling in a blender until it becomes soft. Cover with cling film, pressing it against the filling. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease the cake pan with butter and sprinkle evenly with flour. To make it easier to remove the cake from the mold, you can additionally put a strip of baking paper.
Step 3
Place the sugar and orange zest in a large bowl and rub in with your fingers or a spoon to intensify the orange aroma. Add soft butter and beat with a blender for about 2 minutes. After this, add sunflower oil and beat for another 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, stirring them well each time.
Step 4
In a separate container, mix kefir with orange juice, add vanilla sugar and mix. In another bowl, combine flour, salt and baking powder. Add one-third of the dry ingredients to the egg-butter mixture and mix at low mixer speed.
Step 5
Then pour in a third of the kefir and juice mixture and mix again. Continue alternating dry and wet ingredients until all the batter is combined. Do not knead it for too long, otherwise gluten will develop in the flour and the cake will turn out “rubbery”. Pour a third of the resulting batter into the prepared pan.
Step 6
Spread the poppy seed filling evenly and pour the remaining dough on top. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Check doneness with a wooden skewer: it should come out dry from the middle of the cake. After baking, wait 5 minutes, remove the cake from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
