Blood Orange Upside Down Cake
- for the topping:
- 2 blood oranges
- 1 medium orange
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons neutral oil
- for the cake batter:
- 9 pitted Medjool dates
- 3/4 cup non dairy milk
- 1 cup oat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 8 inch square or round pan with oil. Then line with parchment paper.
- Pour a little bit of oil onto the parchment paper. Spread it evenly and then sprinkle an even layer of sugar.
- Cut the peel off of the oranges and slice them against the segments. They should be around 1/2 a centimeter thick. Arrange them in the pan (on top of the sugar) to cover all the space. Overlap and cut pieces as needed.
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients for the cake. Mix just to combine, do not over-mix!
- Pour the batter on top of the arranged oranges and level it out. Create a shallow dip in the center so that when it's finished baking, the top is level to flip over.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out completely clean. If you want to eat it warm, run a knife around the edges and flip the cake out on to a plate. Otherwise, let the cake cool completely and then flip it out.
