Oranges push our immune system thanks to abundant vitamin C. In addition, the provitamin A from the fruit strengthens vision and ensures a radiant complexion. The irresistible scent of Vanilla can stop stress, restlessness, insomnia and even hunger pangs. In addition, the pod says disease-causing bacteria, viruses and fungi the fight.

If you can't get blood oranges, you can also use regular oranges - but in both cases, organic quality is important, since the peel is also needed for the orange-almond cake.

Preparation

Kitchen utensils

1 Springform pan (à 24 cm diameter)

Preparation steps

1.

Rinse blood oranges hot and rub dry; cut 1 orange crosswise into thin slices, finely grate the peel from the other. In a saucepan, bring 150 ml of water to a boil with 80 g of sugar, add the orange slices and simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes. Then set aside and let cool in the syrup.

2.

Cream butter with powdered sugar and 1 pinch of salt until light and creamy. Then add eggs one at a time and mix well. Add almonds, polenta, fennel seeds, baking powder and orange zest and mix well. Mix everything to a homogeneous dough, pour into the greased springform pan and bake in the preheated oven at 180 °C (convection oven 160 °C; gas: level 2-3) for about 40 minutes.

3.

Remove cake from oven and let cool in the pan.

4.

Squeeze remaining oranges, bring juice to a boil with remaining sugar and simmer syrup over medium heat for about 1 minute. Poke holes in cake with a wooden stick and drizzle hot syrup over. Place cake on a platter, top with candied drained orange slices, sprinkle with flaked almonds and allow to infuse for about 1 hour before serving.
