I needed a 'healthy cake' for my open day, so I found this old recipe of mine. Surprisingly it is GLUTEN, DAIRY and SUGAR FREE.  


Ingredients :
2 unwaxed oranges
3 large free range eggs
200g raw honey
250g ground almonds
100g pistachios- finely ground
1 tsp baking powder

Directions :

1. Put the whole oranges in a saucepan and cover with cold water
2. Bring to the boil and simmer for one hour.

3. Preheat oven to 170C.
4. Grease and flour a 22cm loose bottomed cake tin
5. Remove pan from heat and drain – blend oranges until smooth
6. Take pulp, eggs, honey, almonds and pistachios and baking powderand beat until combined7. Bake for 1 hour until skewer comes out clean
8. Remove, cool and enjoy with a dollop of natural yoghurt or whipped cream.


YUMMY! On sale per slice at 'the garden' open day.
