Almond Orange CakeThis recipe keeps with the KISS (keep it so simple) philosophy.  Here’s a cake with 6 ingredients.  Cook the oranges ahead of time if desired.

2 oranges

1 ½  c raw almonds

6 eggs

½ c raw honey

¼ t baking soda

pinch of salt (optional)

 Cut stems off oranges.  Place whole orange in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to boil and then simmer on low heat for 2 hours.  Cut the oranges in quarters place with peel in Vitamix or other high-powered blender.  Add all other ingredients.  Blend until smooth. Consistency should be like a cake batter.  Add more almonds or water to adjust for variability in the size and juice of oranges. Pour batter into well-greased cake pan (8’x8’).  I use coconut oil to grease.  Bake at 300F until fork test comes out clean (approximately 80 minutes).

 

Enjoy!
