For the Crust:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup vegetable oil

Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:

- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Then whisk in the oil, fresh orange juice, orange zest, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined and no dry streaks remain. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
