Decadent gluten-free almond cake made with whole oranges, can use mandarins. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
Ingredients:
  • 2 whole oranges with peel
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 pinch saffron powder
  • 1.25 cups white sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1.25 cups finely ground almonds (almond meal)
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped candied orange peel
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan, cover the oranges with water and bring to a gentle boil. Simmer for 2 hours on medium heat, checking occasionally to prevent dry boiling. Let the oranges cool, then remove seeds, and blend into a coarse pulp using a blender or food processor.
  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), then generously grease a 10-inch round cake pan and line it with parchment paper.
  • Combine eggs and sugar in a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat until thick and pale, for about 10 minutes. Mix in baking powder and saffron. Add and stir in pureed oranges. Gently fold in almond meal and candied orange peel. Then pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for about 1 hour, or until a small knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan, then invert onto a serving plate.
