Blackberry bakewell cake recipe
- 1 Orange
- 3 Medium free-range eggs
- 200 g (7.1oz) Fructose, xylitol or golden caster sugar
- 55 g (1.9oz) Plain flour
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 300 g (10.6oz) Fresh blackberries
- 1 handful Flaked almonds
- 200 g (7.1oz) Ground almonds
- Put the orange in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil.
- Reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour.
- Halve the orange, remove the pips, then puree in a blender, skin and all.
- Preheat the oven to 170C.
- Oil a 20cm, round spring-form cake tin and line with a disc of baking parchment.
- Beat the eggs and sugar together until pale and thick.
- Fold in the flour, baking powder, almonds and orange puree.
- Finally stir in the fresh blackberries
- Pour into the tin, sprinkle with the flaked almonds and bake for one hour until the top is golden.
- Do keep an eye on it for the last 15 mins as fructose sugar is slightly more likely to catch.
- The cake will be fairly dark though.
- Leave to cool for 10 minutes, then turn out on to a rack and cool completely.
- Sift over icing sugar and serve with a cup of tea.
