Ingredients
To make Clementine and Almond Cake, you'll need:
  • 300g clementines 
  • 6 large eggs  
  • 5 tbsp. Triple Zero sweetener   
  • 150g almond flour 
  • 150g self-raising flour 
  • 2 tsp. almond extract 
  • 1 tsp. baking powder 

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180°c/Gas Mark 4.
  • Place the peeled clementines in a saucepan.
  • Add just enough water to cover the clementines and bring to the boil.
  • Lower the heat and simmer for 25 minutes until tender. 
  • Then chop up the clementines and remove the seeds.
  • Place the stewed clementines in a blender and whizz until smooth.
  • Grease a 7-inch loose-bottomed tin with butter and line it with baking paper.
  • Using an electric whisk, beat the eggs for a few minutes until they are light and frothy. 
  • Add the Triple Zero sweetener, stewed clementines purée, almond flour, self-raising flour, almond extract and baking powder and beat for 3 more minutes.
  • Pour this mix into the cake tin and bake for 50-60 minutes. To check if the cake is cooked, poke a cocktail stick (or something similarly long and thin) into it. If the stick comes out clean, the cake is cooked.
  • Remove the cake from the oven, allow it cool, then remove it from the cake tin and serve.
