Mandarin Cake
This weeks Recipe of the Week has been shared with us by ‘The Food At My Table’ author and designer Alyssia Fraser. A super delicious gluten and dairy free (in season) Mandarin Cake made with 5 simple ingredients. You’ll love this one.
Ingredients:
3 medium size mandarins
250g of almond meal
1 tsp of baking powder
1/2 cup rice malt syrup
4 eggs, beaten
Method:
- Boil the mandarins, covered in water, for 45 minutes or until soft and mushy.
- Drain off the water and leave to cool.
- When cool, cut in half and remove the pips.
- Puree the flesh, juice and skin in a blender, making just over 1 cup of mandarin pulp.
- Add the almond meal, rice syrup and eggs and mix well.
- Pour into a cake tin lined with baking paper.
- Bake in a moderate oven (180’C) until the cake tester comes out clean. The time depends on the oven type – best to check after 20 minutes.

Do you add the almond meal with the eggs and mandarins? Didn’t say in the recipe.

Thanks for picking this up Marg, we’ve just amended now and yes, add it with the eggs and syrup.
