Makes 1 cake
Ingredients
2 whole navel oranges
1 cup pure maple syrup
6 organic eggs or 12 egg whites
pinch of sea salt
4 cups ground almonds
1 cup good quality cocoa powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
Steam the oranges for about 30 40 minutes until soft. Allow to cool then
chop them up and place into a food processor. Process until smooth along
with the maple syrup and salt, then add the eggs and process again. Pour
the mix into a bowl and fold in the almonds, cocoa and cinnamon. Spoon into

The cake should be lovely and moist. Remove from the oven and cool
completely then remove from the tin. Store for 1 week covered in the fridge.
