“I tried this cake while vacationing in Greece years ago and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. Finally tried my hand at it myself and could not believe how simple it was! Tasted even better than I remember!!! This recipe is going to be on repeat.”

This Greek Orange Cake, also known as Portokalopita, is a wonderfully moist and aromatic dessert, featuring crinkled phyllo dough soaked in a sweet citrus syrup. The combination of fresh orange zest, tangy Greek yogurt, and a warm cinnamon-infused syrup creates a truly unforgettable and refreshing cake.
