Ingredients:
- 2 cups (200g) superfine almond flour
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated monk fruit sweetener
- 2 medium oranges (280g)
- 1 tsp (5g) baking powder
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) fine sea salt
- 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (60g) powdered erythritol
- 2 tbsp (30ml) fresh orange juice
- 1/2 tsp (2g) orange zest
Instructions:
- Wash the oranges thoroughly and place them in a pot of water.
- Bring the water to a boil and simmer the oranges for 60 minutes to remove bitterness from the pith.
- Drain the oranges and allow them to cool slightly.
- Quarter the boiled oranges, remove any visible seeds, and place them into a food processor; pulse until a smooth puree forms.
- Add the eggs, granulated monk fruit sweetener, and vanilla extract to the processor and process again until the mixture is light and aerated.
- Sift the almond flour, baking powder, and fine sea salt into the processor or a mixing bowl, then fold by hand until just combined.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Grease an 8-inch round springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
- Pour the batter into the pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the edges are a deep golden brown.
- Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan.
- Whisk together the powdered erythritol, fresh orange juice, and orange zest until smooth, then drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
