Orange & Almond Cake 🍊

A dense, intensely orangey and naturally #glutenfree upside down cake. I absolutely loved this still slightly warm from the oven with a little scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream. Quite grown up flavours and textures, my fussy 7 year old son found it challenging.

Ingredient

Food ration :

8 servings

Cooking time :

1hr 30 mins

very large oranges

200 g

ground almonds

eggs

200 g

caster sugar

heaped tsp baking powder

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Place the oranges in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring the water to the boil then simmer the oranges for 2 hours. Remove and allow to cool.

* Step 2

Cut two of the oranges into quarters and remove any hard pips. Then blend in a food processor until smooth (skins and all). Add the eggs then blend again.

* Step 3

In a mixing bowl, mix the almonds and baking powder together.

* Step 4

Cut the third orange into thick slices and arrange them in the base of a deep springform cake tin lined with parchment paper. Grease the sides of the tin with oil or butter.

* Step 5

Stir the egg and orange wet mix into the dry mix, mix well then pour into the cake tin. Bake at 180 C for 1 hr 30 mins. Cover halfway through to prevent the cake top over browning.

* Step 6

Once cooked allow the cake to cook in the tin for an hour. Then carefully turn out onto a wire rack. Heat some apricot jam in a saucepan and then brush the glaze all over the cake. Done!
