Who said cakes are unhealthy?This one has the lot. Taste and goodness.

If you have been unsuccessful in finding a yummy and fluffy as well as moist cake, that you can enjoy knowing it is good for you, then today you are in luck.

We have finally come up with a great cake recipe to share with you. You will need to plan a little ahead, but otherwise, it’s pretty straight forward.

Ingredients:

  • 2 organic oranges-skin and all
  • 6 free range organic eggs
  • 1 and 1/3 cups of raw coconut sugar
  • 250g almond meal-preferably the organic type
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 170 C
  2. Oil a 23 cm spring pan, and line base with baking paper.
  3. Place the well washed oranges into a large pot. Bring to boil, and let simmer for an hour. Then place oranges on a plate to cool, and cut into quarters removing any pips along the way. Cool for about 30 minutes till it is at room temperature. Pulse in blender until smooth.
  4. Place whole eggs in a bowl and beat for about 3 mins, then add coconut sugar and beat for another 3 minutes till light and fluffy.
  5. Add the orange mix and the almond meal along with the baking powder, and stir gently until all ingredients are well combined.
  6. Pour into the prepared tin and bake for about 1 and ¼ hours, then let it cool in the oven. Once cool, place aside for around 6 hours or overnight to cool completely.
  7. Once it’s ready, remove from tin, and place on a serving plate and enjoy. You will find that this process prevents the cake from “flopping”.

Most importantly, enjoy every piece.

Why Coconut Sugar?

Organic coconut sugar is made from the nectar of the coconut blossom. It is great tasting, has a low GI (35). It is minimally processed, the nectar is evaporated in low heat until crystallised.

Coconut sugar has twice the iron of brown sugar, four times the magnesium and over ten times more zinc.
