    Add Eggs and Orange Zest:
    Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the orange zest.

    Mix Wet and Dry Ingredients:
    Alternate adding the dry flour mixture and the orange juice + coconut milk to the butter mixture. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined (don’t overmix).

    Bake:
    Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

    Make the Glaze:
    In a small saucepan, heat the honey and orange juice over low heat until warm and combined. Remove from heat.

    Glaze the Cake:
    Enjoy!
