Oriental orange cake

I love books ... and especially the warm, "feminine" ones, in which recipes are woven ... The recipe is therefore copied from Jane Green's book "Promise Me", and the author cites her family, mother and grandmother as the source of the recipe! Although I have a similar grandmother's recipe with oranges and almonds - chocolate also goes into it, so it's something different ....

Preparation steps

  • Put the whole orange in a bowl, cover with water, cook on low heat for about 1 h (or in the microwave for about 25 min) until softened. Cut it in half, remove the stones and mix it.
  • Whisk eggs and sugar until foamy. Stir in flour, baking powder, almonds and orange puree.
  • Preheat the oven to 180. Grease a round cake tin (diameter 20 cm) and line it with baking paper. Pour the batter into a cake tin and bake for about 1 h. Don't worry if the dough looks sparse, everything bakes nicely, but slowly and at a lower temp. - reduce the temp. ovens at 160 * for the entire baking time.
  • Melt the marmalade in a small bowl, pass through a fine sieve and strain to squeeze out all the juice. Coat the cake with juice. When the cake has cooled, sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
  • This time, I used hazelnuts that I had previously roasted and peeled before grinding. For the topping, I used homemade orange jam. I used a 2 dcl glass as a measuring cup, and I weighed the ingredients, so I also state the weight in g for those who like more precise recipes. This cake is small - 20 cm in diameter, so you have to increase the ingredients for a bigger one!

Serving

Mix the whipped sweet cream with the orange peel and serve on the side with the cake. (We're not this time because we're all on a diet, ha !!!)
