Clementine Cake - In the Making
This is a great cake, so easy, so delicious and the way I make it, quite healthy and should appeal to those high protein lovers - I use organic ingredients wherever possible
6 eggs
4/5 Clementines (about 375 grams, but no need to be exact)
150 grams sugar (I use half Xylitol, a natural sweetner which doesn't spike blood sugar levels)
250 grams ground almonds
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
Put clementines into water and bring to simmer - simmer for 2 hours, drain and leave to cool (I don't always wait)
Whiz clementines, skin, pips the lot, into a pulp
Whip eggs until light and foamy and add to almonds sugar & baking powder - fold in and add clementine pulp.
Bake in oven 180C for 1 hour
Enjoy!!

I'll be right over! :) Grammom
Absolutely delightful post, Linda.
Photos and presentation are perfect! Delicious looking cake...
Linda, yum! I have clementines in my fridge at this moment awaiting such a delicious fate. I just need to figure out how to convert grams to cups. :) Also...what is a pip? Seed?
P/S - What kind of dogs do you have?
Sara, Funny this common language thing isn't it! I didn't realise you had a different word for pips - another one to add to my list of trans-atlantic translations - lol
Yes, pips are seeds. Here in the UK we just don't think of apples and citrus fruits as having seeds, only pips. I have never questioned it, now I am wondering why?
My dogs will be making an appearance in my blog, I am holding out at the moment, because most of my pictures tend to be of the girls - so this Challenge is really good for me. I have 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks, Molly aged 2 1/2 years and Rooby aged 10 months and one Chocolate Labrador, Bessie aged 8 (she's the boss - lol). They are also known as Bess, Moll & Roo
I think I might have to try this one myself! Minus the nuts. All sanity jokes aside, I'm not a nut person ;-)
I'm actually surprised the word clementine translated to American English. Growing up in the US we always called them tangerines. I'd never heard them referred to as clementines until I moved to Canada. I think I'm going to try the recipe - it really does look yummy...
