Orange, Almond & Poppyseed Cake

Recipe by Nichole Horvath

Serves – 8-10
Prep Time – 10 mins (plus 2 hours for boiling the oranges)
Cook Time – 60 mins

Ingredients

2 oranges
250 g Coles caster sugar
6 eggs
250 g Coles almond meal
1 tsp Coles baking powder
50 g Coles poppyseeds

Method

Place the whole oranges in a saucepan, cover with water, and boil for 2 hours, topping up the water as needed. Remove from the water and allow to cool. Cut the oranges into quarters, remove any pips, and puree the oranges using a food processor.

Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan-forced). Line a 22 cm cake tin with baking paper.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the caster sugar and eggs until combined. Add the orange puree and whisk again.

Fold in the almond meal, baking powder, and poppyseeds with a spatula.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and bake for 60 minutes, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Serve dusted with icing sugar and fresh orange segments.
