Try this orange cake. It's wonderful (but only uses 2 oranges, sorry).

Nigella's clementine cake? Have made w oranges and a little more sugar, fab and uses a few oranges. Or make 2 and freeze one.

Marmalade! Or orange polenta cake. Both are good.

Orange biscuits. Use a basic biscuit recipe and add orange.

You could even add chocolate to the orange cake - I made my own recipe up, boiling down orange juice to a concentrate and then add it instead of milk/ flavour to a chocolate cake recipe. Can also do duck a l'orange (or chicken works fine too)

Love the look of the clementine cake but I don't have any ground almonds. Does anyone reckon I could replace those with flour? Is that really dumb?

Nuts will give it a taste and texture. Maybe use some brown sugar and a touch of almond essence?

Salbertina · 06/10/2013 12:51

And it's lovely and moist without flou but sure you could adapt and use. Maybe add an extra orange?

Ok I'm doing the nigella one! which is basically the same as the one crabb posted. But I've just let the water burn dry in the pan cos I was watching X factor! So they are a bit burnt... Hoping I can just grate the burnt skin off and still use the rest of the oranges cos I don't have another hour and a half to wait for more to cook!

Just to update ... Cake was lovely but I felt a bit overlooked so will just cook it for 45 mins next time. I covered it with a topping of squeezed orange juice, Philadelphia and sugar and that was a great addition. Not much of it left now already ...

Sounds lovely! trying not to salivate here Smile

Have just read my post ... that I felt a bit overlooked! Obviously I meant that I felt the cake was a bit overCOOKED!
