1 cake in a springform pan approx. 24-26 cm
Ingredients :
- 2 organic oranges (with thin peel)
- 6 eggs
- 225 g cane sugar
- 300 g almond flour (maybe a little more depending on the size of the oranges)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar or vanilla powder
- Sprinkle icing sugar or icing for decoration
Here's how you do it:
- Boil the oranges (peeled) for 2 hours to make them completely tender. Let them cool, remove the seeds and blend them.
- Prepare the other ingredients: Mix almond flour with baking powder and vanilla sugar in a bowl.
- Whisk eggs and sugar together in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add the blended orange pulp to the egg and sugar mixture and gently fold in the almond flour. The dough should have a light oatmeal consistency.
- Pour the batter into a greased springform pan and bake at 175° for about 50-60 minutes. If the top starts to get too dark, reduce the temperature to 160° for the last 20 minutes.
- Once cooled, decorate the cake with icing sugar or a glaze made with orange juice. You may want to use a little turmeric to give the icing a nice color.
- The cake can be decorated with edible flowers, candied violets or some blueberries for extra decoration.
