Orange and almond cake
Ingredients
For a mould of 23cm :
For the cake
- 600 g baked orange (this makes a priori the total of 3 of the 4 oranges above)
- 170 g almond powder
- 120 g whole cane sugar
- 280 g eggs 5 large eggs
- 70 g blood orange juice
- 55 g coconut oil
Ganache:
- 120 g dark chocolate
- 80 g full-fat liquid cream
Instructions
- Start by cooking three oranges (2 table and 1 blood) in boiling water for 1 hour. You can put a lid on during cooking. You'll be left with a blood orange, which can then be squeezed.
- Oranges become soft after this treatment. Let them cool out of the water.
- Meanwhile (or while the oranges are cooking), bake the almond powder at 170°C for 16 minutes. Slightly tinted.
- When oranges can be handled, cut them into pieces and remove any seeds.
- Weigh out 600g and place in a blender with the wholegrain cane sugar and eggs.
- Blend to a creamy consistency. Pour into a container. Squeeze the last blood orange. Pour 70g of the juice into the dough.
- Pour in the melted coconut oil and almond powder.
- Mix well, then pour into a mold (in this case, a removable springform pan) lined with parchment paper. You can also apply grease to the inner edge.
- Bake at 175°C for 45 minutes over static heat (not fan assisted).
- Leave to cool, then make the ganache by melting the cream and chopped dark chocolate together in a microwave oven. Mix well, then pour over the cake and shake to smooth. You can also tap the mold on the work surface to even out the surface.
- Leave to cool before chilling for at least 4 hours before serving. Eat well chilled.
