Rhubarb And Orange Cake

Ingredients

• 400g rhubarb, thickly sliced

• 280g of caster sugar (golden)
  

• 225g butter, softened
  

• A single orange, zest, and juice, finely grated
  

• 225 grams of self-rising flour

• 1-pound almonds, ground

• 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

• 3 large eggs

• A small handful of flaked almonds

• Icing sugar (to dust with)

TIPS

• Before cutting the orange in half, zest it. Then squeeze the juice out.
• To keep the almond flour fresh, store it in the refrigerator. Nut flours contain oils that might go rancid. You can also put it in the freezer.
• Depending on your oven, baking this cake may take longer or take shorter. In the center, insert a wooden skewer and make sure it comes out clean.
• Cover the cake top with aluminum foil if it begins to brown before it is entirely done.
  
• Because rhubarb is only available in the late spring and summer, frequently dice it and freeze it in zip lock bags so that you can use it throughout the year!
• Directions
• Step 1 – Keep the rhubarb in a mixing basin and add 50g of sugar. Stir to coat the rhubarb, then put aside for 30 minutes to extract some of the juices (macerate). Meanwhile, grease and line a 23cm loose-bottomed round cake tin with baking parchment, and preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. 
• Step 2 – In a large mixing basin, combine the remaining sugar, butter, orange zest, and juice, and beat well with an electric whisk. Blend in the flour, almonds, baking powder, and eggs until smooth. Combine the rhubarb and any juices in a mixing bowl. Fill the tin halfway with batter and level the top.
