Orange & almond cake (dairy free)

This is my favourite cake to eat. Super simple to make and delicious. Another plus is that it contains absolutely no fat, no flour, it has whole fruit in it, which, in my eyes, makes it a healthy cake!


Ingredients:

300g ground almonds
200g sugar 
6 eggs
1tsp baking powder 
2 large oranges

100g dairy free dark chocolate 
2 tbsp dairy free spread

Method:

1) In a large pan, boil the whole oranges for 1 hour
2) Once the oranges are soft, quarter then and blitz them in a food processor until completely liquidised. 
3) Add eggs and blitz
4) Add sugar, baking piwder and almonds and mix until all ingredients are incorporated
5) Pour into a lined round tin and bake for about 45 minutes at 200C, or until an inserted skewer comes out clean. 
6) Once the cake has cooled down, melt together the chocolate and the butter (in a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water) until smooth and spread on top of the cake
