Odd that you should mention that, I made one only yesterday.
Note: I use 1/4 lb, a whole pound makes far too large a cake.
4 oz self-raising flour
4 oz sugar
4 oz butter
2 eggs (yep, that's about 4 oz worth)
1 orange (guess what that weighs?)
Cream butter and sugar, add grated zest of the orange. Beat in eggs,
orange juice and flour. Bake in a well-greased and floured tin in a
moderate oven, until the cake leaves the sides of the tin and a skewer
inserted comes out clean. Remove from tin and cool on a wire rack.
If liked you can ice with orange icing - I just make a water icing,
substituting orange juice for water.
I always bake this in a kugelhopf mould. You can substitute other citrus
fruit if liked; I often make it with lemon.
