Recipe: b. Easy Orange & Almond Cake

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond meal
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ cup butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup  or coconut sugar
  • 1 large orange zest + ½ cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of salt

Method

  1. Heat oven to 170°C. Line a round cake tin with baking paper.
  2. Whisk eggs, melted butter, sugar, orange juice, orange zest and vanilla.
  3. Stir through almond meal, baking powder and salt.
  4. Pour into the tin and bake for 35–45 minutes, until golden and a skewer comes out mostly clean.
  5. Cool for 10–15 minutes before removing from the tin.

Little trick: While it’s warm, poke a few holes in the top and drizzle over 2–3 tbsp extra orange juice. It makes it beautifully moist and orangey.

Health and Happiness,
