Ingredients
5 Satsuma or Clementine oranges1 cup plus 2 T Splenda2 1/3 cup almonds, ground6 eggs1 t baking powder
Directions
Makes 8 servings
Put the clementines in a pot with some cold water, bring to the boil and cook for 2 hours. Drain and, when cool, cut each clementine in half and remove the pips. Dump the clementines - skins, pith, fruit and all - and give a quick blitz. Then tip in all the remaining ingredients and pulse to a pulp. Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Butter and line an 8 inch springform pan.

Pour the cake mixture into the prepared pan and bake for an hour, when a skewer will come out clean; you'll probably have to cover with foil or greaseproof after about 40 minutes to stop the top burning. Remove from the oven and leave to cool, on a rack, but in the pan. When the cake's cold, you can take it out of the tin. I think this is better a day after it's made, but I don't complain about eating it any time.

    None of the orange flavor came through. I ground whole almonds because the receipe did not call for almond flour. May try again using 2-1/2 cups of almond flour instead.

    Would like to know exactly what you used. - 12/18/10

    Great! I made this with egg beaters and a 9" springform pan with no issues. Very moist and citrus-y. - 1/2/10
