Easy Vegan Orange and Nut Cake

Elena Butuc

A delicious and surprisingly simple cake that bursts with flavor. Despite being entirely vegan, this dessert is rich and satisfying, thanks to the perfect balance of citrusy oranges, crunchy nuts, and a touch of sweetness. You might not even notice it’s vegan!

The slight bitterness from the oranges enhances the taste beautifully, and for a milder citrus flavor, you can use just one orange instead of two. This recipe is a must-try for any occasion.
