If you have been following along you\u2019ll know that last time<\/a>, we fired up the oven for some delicious roasted veggies with the intention of using that heat for a few more dishes while we are at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s recipe is a must have winter comfort. It is delicious, warm, quick and uses one of the best products of winter: oranges!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need to have about 3 hours notice to complete this dish. But don’t worry – hands-on time is only about 10 minutes. Since it is a cake, if you start it just before you start making dinner, it\u2019ll be ready by the time you are ready for dessert or shortly after!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an added bonus, if your family has gluten challenges like ours, this is completely gluten and grain free, as well as dairy free. But watch out – it does contain nuts, so it is not for school lunches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ingredients:
2 oranges
6 eggs
180 g of raw sugar (you could add more if you have a very sweet tooth but this was plenty sweet for us)
250 g almond meal
1 tsp baking powder
50 g flaked almonds
2 tsp icing sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Wash the navel oranges and place into a large pot.<\/li>
  2. Cover with water and bring to the boil on the stovetop for 2 hours (add more water during this time).<\/li>
  3. Remove the oranges from the water and allow to cool completely (they’ll be nice and soft).<\/li>
  4. Preheat oven to 160 degrees celsius (fan-forced).\u00a0<\/li>
  5. Grease and line the base and sides of a 22cm springform pan with baking paper and set aside.<\/li>
  6. Cut the ends off the oranges and discard to the compost, and remove any seeds.<\/li>
  7. Chop the cooled oranges into pieces and place into a food processor. Process until completely smooth and no lumps remain. Set aside.<\/li>
  8. Beat the eggs and caster sugar in a large bowl until pale and frothy (about 2 minutes on high using hand-held beaters).<\/li>
  9. Add the orange puree and stir through.<\/li>
  10. Add the almond meal and baking powder and stir through.Pour the mixture into the prepared baking tin.<\/li>
  11. Sprinkle the flaked almonds over the top of the cake.<\/li>
  12. Bake for 60 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out with just a few crumbs on it.<\/li>
  13. Allow to cool completely in the tin (preferably place it into the fridge overnight).<\/li>
  14. Sprinkle with icing sugar just before serving.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The original recipe I got this from suggests a sweet cream as topping but we just enjoy it with fresh Co-op-made yoghurt – or nothing at all as it is rich and moist enough on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Yum! Everybody loves it. It will keep in the fridge for a few days but ours never last that long!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Tips: If you are out of almond meal, like I usually am, you can make this if you are well-stocked with actual almonds. Most blenders will do a reasonable job at milling them into a meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Finally, make sure your eggs are from happy chooks – either your own, or from the Co-op!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Happy baking and stay cozy and safe!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
