Method

Steel Blade: Cut orange in quarters, but do not peel. Process until fine, about 25 seconds. Add eggs, sugar and oil. Process for 10 seconds. Add flour and baking powder. Process with several on/off pulses, just until flour is blended into dough.

Do not overprocess. Dough will be fairly sticky. Remove from bowl with a rubber spatula onto a lightly floured surface. Use as directed.
