Afraid of filo? There’s no reason to fear here! In this cake recipe, you get to tear the filo apart – literally. Shredded filo takes the place of flour for a cake that’s truly unique in texture. Combined with Greek yogurt, olive oil and loads of fresh citrus flavour, this cake is a delicious change from the norm!
In Greece this cake is also often made with lemon. Here, portokalia – or oranges – are used. Cinnamon complements the orange flavour perfectly, though you can choose to omit it if you’re not a fan.
An orange cake like no other, it’s gorgeously moist thanks to the orange and cinnamon infused syrup. Like most Greek cakes, this cake is soaked in syrup after baking. The result isn’t overly sweet as you might expect, as the actual cake mixture contains less sugar than a typical cake recipe.
The one rule of thumb is to ensure that you always pour the syrup over the cake at the right time. Greek kitchen wisdom says it should always be cold syrup / hot cake, or hot syrup / cold cake. Here we show the former to save you time, but you can do it either way. If trying the latter, be sure to let the cake cool completely to room temperature, then pour over the hot syrup straight from the stovetop.
