Flourless Orange Cake

This is a Stepahanie Alexander version of Claudia Rodin's Middle Eastern Orange Cake - gorgeous!

Ingredients

2 large oranges

250g sugar

250g ground almond meal

6 beaten eggs

1 tsp baking powder

 Method:

  1. Boil the oranges in a little water in a covered saucepan on low heat.*
  2. Allow oranges to cool and cut open, remove pips and chop roughly.
  3. Preheat oven to 190 Celcius. Butter and flour a springform tin (a 24cm tin seems OK)
  4. Blend oranges and all other ingredients thoroughly in a food processor.**
  5. Pour batter into the prepared tin, and bake for 1 hour. If cake is still very wet, you may need to bake a little longer***
  6. Allow to cool in the tin before gently turning out.

 Notes:

* You'll have to watch the oranges and add more water over time or they will stick and blacken.

** You may have to process the mixture in batches if your food processor is small.

***Again watch this, as an old, unpredictable oven like mine may even take less time!
