Grain Free Valencia Orange Cake

Ingredients

N

The cake:

  • 2 Organic Valencia Oranges
  • 4 Eggs
  • 3/4 cup of Honey
  • 2 cups of almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon of baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt
Slice of moist Valencia orange almond flour cake topped with orange slice and glaze on a white plate with silver rim.

Yields: 1 cake

Directions

  1. Place 2 whole Valencia oranges in a pot with enough water to cover them. Add a tightly sealed lid. The oranges will float, but they should be mostly covered. Simmer them in the pot for about 1-1/2 to 2 hours. When you can easily glide a toothpick or fork through them, they are ready. You can add water to them while they are cooking if necessary. 
  2. Cool the oranges for a few minutes, slice them into wedges and remove any pits or inedible parts (like the nub where the stem was).
  3. Process the oranges until you have a smooth paste without lumps.
  4. Preheat over to 325 degrees F
  5. To get a slightly lighter cake separate the egg yolks and the egg whites, and then whip the egg whites separately until stiff peaks form. (I do this).
  6. In a bowl beat eggs yolks separately until blended and then beat in the honey and baking soda, salt, and almond flour.
  7. Fold in almond flour and orange paste into the egg and honey mixture and blend well.
  8. Fold the egg whites into the rest of the batter.
  9. Use a bundt pan or a spring form pan that is well buttered.
  10. Pour the batter into the pan and bake 45 minutes (to an hour) or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
