Flourless Orange Cake
This time of year one of my favourite ingredients comes back into season, oranges.
And I like to use them in sweet and savoury recipes, as you can see:
- Orange Jam
- Orange Jam Cake
- Orange Chiboust,
- Ricotta and Orange Jam Tart
- Orange risotto
- Orange “Dust”
But I’ve never used whole oranges.
So I wanted to try and when I see this flourless recipe, I wanted to make it!
This gluten free orange and almond cake is rich and moist. A fat free almond and orange cake, made moist with two oranges that have been simmered for 15 minutes (two times) in order to remove any bitterness and then blitzed to a pulp and mixed into the egg, sugar and almond mixture.
