This cake will serve as a pudding. It is softened with syrup and Grand Marnier in much the same way as rum baba but contains no flour so will suit those on a gluten-free regime.

Ingredients

  • 2 oranges
  • 6 eggs
  • 250 g caster sugar

Method

Boil the oranges in water for about 3 hours until very soft. Cool then halve to scrape out the pips and juice. Blend in a food processor, then drain away as much liquid as possible. You will need around 300g chopped orange pulp and skin in total.

Preheat the oven to 150°C/fan 130°C/gas mark 2
