Whole Orange Cake

I had an over abundance of oranges this week, so went hunting for a recipe to use them up. This is what the wonderful google machine found for me:

2 Large Oranges
250g (9oz) Ground Almonds
25g (9oz) Caster Sugar
6 Large Eggs
1tsp Baking Powder

Pre-heat over to Gas Mark 5, and grease a 20cm cake tin.

Cover the oranges with water and bring to the boil, then simmer for 1 hour. Then remove and leave to cool.

Chop into piece, removing all of the pips and puree in a food processor. Blend in the eggs and then add the dry ingredients, transfer into the tin and cook for 45mins-1 hour. Until golden on top.

I found that the inside of the cake was very moist, but very delicious. I topped the cake with a chocolate gnash, and everyone seemed to enjoy it a great deal.
