Cuisine: Jewish Created by Batia Slater

Flourless Orange and Almond Cake is a classic Passover dessert drawing on the Sephardic traditions of Morocco, the Mediterranean and the Middle East (where citrus was more available).

Ingredients

2 oranges
6 eggs
250g caster sugar
250g almond meal
1tsp baking powder
Extra caster sugar for dusting before baking
Icing sugar for dusting after baking
Margarine or oil spray (for greasing the pan)
 

Preparation

Wash oranges and place unpeeled, in a pot of boiling water for 2 hours. Drain the water and allow the oranges to cool. This can be done ahead of time.

Preheat oven to 190°C.

Break 6 eggs into a mixing bowl or blender. Add caster sugar and beat or blend together.
Place the two oranges into the egg mix. Break up the oranges and then blend together to a smooth consistency. Add the almond meal and baking powder and blend.

Grease a 20 cm spring form baking pan with margarine (or vegetable oil spray) and dust with caster sugar.

Pour batter into the pan and sprinkle caster sugar on top and bake for 1 hour to an hour and a half or until the top is golden brown.

Dust with icing sugar to serve.

So Simple, No fuss
This recipe is briliant. Quick and easy, Beats the cafe strip cakes. Watching the video really helps. The first time I made it I skewered the cake and put it on the rack to cool and noticed it weaping in the middle not cooked, it had been out of the oven 10 mins so threw it back in, pulled it out, not happy, back in cracked thru the middle but didnt come out till I was happy with it. Face down and dusted with icing sugar, no one guessed something was wrong and the taste was beautiful.

Seems to be the same recipe, but with clementine oranges ( though I just use 2 thin skinned oranges) and Maya Gold chocolate grated over the top while still hot straight from the oven, while still in the tin. Yummy!

Orange & Almond cake. WOW!
If you love the flavours of orange & almond you are going to rave over this one. There is no flour or butter in this making it a healthy dessert. I love the flavour of almond , so I always add a t/spoon of almond essence to the mix. Comments I get when I serve this up to guests Is" WOW! that is amazing", and I agree, it really is. This is definately 10/10

Orange and Almond Cake
This cake is so good; I am sorry that so many people find it difficult to make. I think it is best to follow the recipe because, after cooling and cutting the oranges in half on a plate so that you do not lose the juice, you only have to remove the pips and put the oranges in the food processor for a minute and then add all the other ingredients. I use a loaf tin and greased paper liner. In my fan assisted oven I keep a careful watch that it doesn't get too well-done, using a skewer to test.

use manderins instead of oranges
This is a great cake and I have made it many times. It is much better if you replace the oranges with manderins

There is an easier way to make this cake
If you don't want to boil the oranges for 2 hours. Wash and put in a zip lock freezer bag. Cook on high in Microwave for 10 minutes. Let cool and then blend in the food processor. Take out and then blend eggs, sugar, baking powder and almonds, add blended oranges last and then pour into cake tin to cook. It should only need one hour in a 180 C. I have made this cake around 100 times and never had a flop. However i have never blended the oranges in with the sugar and eggs . YUK.

Orange Cake
Hi there, This recipe is absolutely fantastic. I've never seen a cake recipe with so few ingredients, not to mention without flour. Like others, I am also modifying it to suit my oven baking time. I have SBS to blame for my husband's constant nagging about when I'm going to make the cake again. Not a week goes by without having made one. I think it will become a staple desert in the future.

Healthy & Delicious!
Baking cakes is not my forte, but this one is simple. The best desert ever! I reduce the temperature to 170-180, and bake for 1 hour. The fragrance from boiling the oranges (I used naval) and the cake is delicious! Highly recommended!

Fantastico
I loved the ease, organic oranges from the garden, fresh eggs from the girls down the street and organic almond meal from the local organika shop. Family gave it the top rating. I'm onto my second cake now, I added thinly sliced orange peel that had been candied as a topping after I had sprinkled the icing sugar to top it off.

Great cake
This is the best cake that I have ever made! I reduced the sugar to 150g and added 100g whole meal self raising flour. The cake came nice and soft and adequate sugar level. I will recommend this for anyone.

Light, Soft, Fluffy and Very Moist Cake!
I've blogged about the cake: http://carine-olivia.com/blog/index.php/2009/06/flourless-orange-and-almond-cake/ The cake wasn't bitter at all. In fact, I even reduced the amount of sugar. I used three quarter cups only. I also used 3 oranges instead of two, and removed the pith to reduce more bitterness. I loved this cake and so did the people who tried it. It's very moist and light. I prefer to eat it when it's warm!

great for nonna and baby
I've made this 2-3 times now and recommended to many. We bake at 165degrees for 1 hour. We use 3 oranges and we cut the base and remove the pith after boiling. Also the high paper collar is pretty important for controlling browning. Beautiful cake - never fails. Good for gluten intolerant and popular with the babies at our playgroup too.

Please give more accurate description
I am going to try to bake this cake. I noticed that your written description is different from the video. Your written description mentioned to ' Grease a 20 cm spring form baking pan with margarine (or vegetable oil spray) and dust with caster sugar' but on your video I noticed you have lined both the sides and bottom with baking paper. Would appreciate is you could give a more accurate written recipe. It would have make a different between a success or a failure with this recipe.

dissapointed
it does look like an easy cake to make but I was dissapointed with the taste, abit bitter, also getting the oven temp. correct was a struggle, the recipe doesnt specify what the oven temp should be if your using fan-forced, and also do you continue on 190 deg for the whole 2 and half hours? i will try again this eve to make the cake, oranges are cooling as we speak....fingers crossed.xx p.s i mite add some vanilla bean paste and some sugar , let u know how i go...

Orange almond cake
Reading through the comments I don't think anyone actually managed to get their cake to look like the one in the video. Mine, too, was dense and moist and the bitterness took some getting used to. I would make it again, but perhaps substitute some rice flour for the almonds to lighten it a bit, but still keep it gluten free.

The perfect cake.
This cake is absolutely sublime. I'm playing around with the recipe to refine it to my taste and to determine accurate cooking time in my oven. Tastes amazing served with vanilla yoghurt and flaked almonds on the side. I love the slight bitterness, as to me, it offsets the large amount of sugar used in the recipe. This is my favourite cake of the moment :) (PS: tried to give this 5 stars but the star rating wouldn't function properly, so 3 is all it would allow me to give)

Taking the pith
In answer to the negative comment regarding the bitterness, I've been making this cake for a few years and to guard against bitterness , after boiling the then cooling the oranges, I scrape away the pith (the white stuff between the rind and the flesh) . No bitterness! Hope this helps.

sorely dissapointed
Well, after the raving reviews- and being enticed with how EASY this cake is to make. I dearly say i was a tad disappointed to say the least! The orange was extremely bitter throughout the cake and could have been a little sweeter to balance it...Might be better off trying it without the orange rind? though i can't say I'd be trying it again- as we were all so looking forward to it on Easter and were all left feeling very short changed!! boo hoo

Cake was like a dessert
I made this cake and while it was very delicious with the orange flavour, I found it to be more like a dessert in texture, rather than a cake, as it is flourless. I am going to try it again adding some self raising flour, so I'll let you know how I go!. Also, this cake drops, that is quite normal. It puffs up and rises, then deflates again. I'd say it does this because there is no flour in it, my experiment will soon let me know.

the decadent version
I make a bigger, more decadent version with 400g of almond meal and 8 eggs and big navel oranges. I also thinly slice a 3rd orange and simmer it in a strong syrup until it reduces by half. I then put the slices on a piece of baking paper to cool and firm for decoration, then I pour the syrup, mixed with a little cointreau over the cake. With whipped cream, it's to die for.

Orange cake
I have been making this beautiful cake for years in Australia, after discovering it in an old Claudia Rodin cookbook. The sweetness of the cake always depends on the sweetness of the oranges used and I often vary the amounts of sugar in the cake, depending on the oranges available. I also simmer a quarter of a jar of apricot jam and a squeeze of lemon juice to a syrup consistency and pour over the top of the cake for a fabulous glaze.

Two Thumbs Up for this Orange and Almond Cake
Thanks for the recipe. I love this cake and can bake it again and again without getting bored of eating it! It came out perfect the second time as I added 2 tablespoons of sugar into the mix for a sweeter taste and brushed some butter onto the baking tin before pouring in the mix. Good quality oranges help to bring out the fruity/citrus flavour. It is so moist and yummy and I can't wait to bake it again this week!

Orange & Almond Cake
This cake is just supurb!! I also lined my tin but cooked it for 1 hour at 180 (no fan) and then turned it up to 190 with the fan on for 30 mins. It turned a beautiful golden brown and the inside was nice and moist. To make it slightly sweeter, make sure you really dust the tin and top of cake with castor sugar before baking. Also a large sprinkling of icing sugar as soon as it is out of the oven gives it a nice sweet taste. I will also give this a go with lemons.

Fantastic cake!
I followed comments and lined my tin, still came out browned but I didn't mind. It was delicious, once you get used the different texture as its very moist. Make sure you use good quality sweet oranges, like Valencia. The cake lasted all of three days, eaten mostly by me!

Orange and Almond Cake
I made the cake in the blender, so all the pips were blended in with everything else. The cake was slightly bitter and for my sweet tooth, i thought it needed a bit more sugar/syrup, but my partner absolutely loved it. I cooked it for 2hrs, 170 fan forced, the top was brown and the inside slightly undercooked. On standing it was just perfect. Very delicious and moist cake, but it looked nothing like the cake in the video. I think a larger cake tin would be better, maybe 21/22cm.

Perfect cake
I cook by 'the seat of my pants' and through experience, I try to work through the cooking time and temperature, using the recipe cooking instructions as a guide only. I commenced baking at 190 for 10 minutes, then 170 in a fan forced oven. The cake's appearance and texture turned out perfect. Our guests were very impressed and the recipe was copied 5 times.

I make 2-3 of these every week for our Tea House and they always go down a treat,.My Jewish friend who gave me the recipe advised me to cool the cake in the tin, overnight, before cutting...and it always turns out just right...I figure it need the overnight time to set. I also add poppyseeds occasionaly to change it a bit. cheers

Orange Almond Cake
I made this cake a few days ago and the mixture seemed almost double as almost came to the very top of my 20cm pan. I am about to retry it using half of the mixture. It rose over the pan but did not flop and looked like a souffle. It was too dark on the outside and way too wet on the inside also but tasted great. I had to cut the outside off it and the top to keep cooking it, cooked it for around two hours and still too wet.

Having trouble getting correct cooking time for this cake. Cooked for 1 hr 10 at 185 degrees (thought 190 might be reason why others said it got too brown), fan forced oven, outside was very brown verging on burnt and inside still bit too moist. Took pips out so not bitter like other people have commented. Can anyone who's had sucess with this tell me what I can change to get this right before I have another attempt? Your help will be much appreciated.

Delicious!
My partner baked this yesterday, and it was delicious! The smell of oranges cooking filled the house all day. The only quibble we had was, like Karin from Hornsby, that the cooking time didn't quite work as planned- the final product was a little too brown outside, and a little undercooked inside. Definitely looking forward to trying it again so we can tweak the cooking time and get it 100% perfect!

no pips
I use navel oranges which does not have pips and I pick out the bit of the stem on the outside of the orange. You can also use lemons for this cake. If you do use lemons, use 3 lemons and you'll need to pick out all of the pips. Yes the cake is a bit bitter, especially if you do not wash the outside of the fruit thoroughly. Use a small round springform pan to get good height, otherwise you end up with a very shallow looking cake.

Cake is great. Make sure you line the tin. I used one layer and it was brown on the bottom/edges. Also I cooked it at 165c as I have a fan forced oven. The top browned nicely. It was a little bitter, is this from the pips? Any ideas?

Great recipe - maybe too moist!?!?!
Just made this this morning and it was yum - I only cooked it for an hour (180 Fan Forced) and it was VERY brown on top (skewer came out clean). I found it was really moist (maybe too moist?). But still delicious. There's a similar recipe on the Aust Women's Weekly archives (http://aww.ninemsn.com.au/ARTICLE.aspx?id=262282) which mentions trimming the ends off the boiled oranges, and discarding any pips. That recipe adds some plain flour, so might add that next time.

Orange and Almond Cake Jewish
This is a superb cake. Fast and Easy to make. I like to add half a handful of dried currants to the mixture before baking, and when cooked through and cooled, I like to decorate with some whipped cream and a little drizzle of chocolate sauce.
