Time 1h45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 oranges, washed well to remove any sprays and waxes
1 1/2 cups ground almonds
1 cup superfine sugar or 1 cup caster sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon Cointreau liqueur
6 eggs, lightly beaten
confectioners' sugar, to dust (gluten-free if needed)

Steps:

  • Place the whole oranges in a large saucepan. Add enough water to cover them and place a small plate on top of the oranges to keep them submerged in the water.
  • Gradually bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat and allow them to simmer for 40 minutes, or until the oranges are very soft.
  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
  • Cut a piece piece of parchment paper to fit in the bottom of an 8 inch round cake pan. Lightly grease the cake pan and then place the parchment paper circle in the base.
  • Cut each of the oranges into quarters. Set aside to cool.
  • Remove any pips, and then place the oranges in the bowl of a food processor and blend until they form a very smooth pulp.
  • Add the ground almonds, sugar, baking powder, vanilla, and Cointreau. Process (pulse) until all of the ingredients are combined.
  • Add the egg and process again until just combined. Be careful not to overprocess.
  • Pour the orange mixture into the prepared cake pan and bake for 50 minutes, or until the cake is firm and leaves the side of the pan.
  • Allow to cool completely in the pan. Dust with confectioners' sugar to serve.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cake turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This cake is a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor is good. I think I'll try making it with a little less almond flour next time.

This flourless orange and almond cake was a delight! The texture was moist and dense, with a lovely citrus flavor. The almonds added a nice nutty crunch. I'll definitely be making this cake again.
