Super easy to make, flavorful and divinely moist cake. Original recipe by Nigella (http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/clementine-cake-2559).
Ingredients
- 4-5 clementines (about 375g total weight)
- 6 eggs
- 200g sugar
- 250g ground almonds
- 1 heaped tsp baking powder
Directions
- Put the clementines in a pan with some cold water, bring to the boil and cook for 2 hours.
- Drain and, when cool, cut each clementine in half and remove the pips.
- Mix and pulse the clementines to a pulp- skins, pith, fruit and all. Preheat the oven to gas mark 5/190ºC. Butter and line a 21cm Springform tin.
- Beat the eggs and add the sugar, almonds and baking powder. Mix well, adding the pulped oranges.
- Butter and line a 21cm Springform tin.
- Pour the cake mixture into the prepared tin and bake for an hour or until baked (when a skewer will come out clean). Cover the top with foil or greaseproof paper after about 40 minutes to stop the top burning.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool, in the tin. When the cake's cold, take it out of the tin.
