Ingredients

  • Organic Tangerines: 6 (washed and sliced)
  • Milk: 80 ml
  • Sugar: 250 g
  • Eggs: 3
  • Flour: 300 g
  • Baking Powder: 16 g (1 packet)
  • Vegetable Oil: 100 ml
  • Powdered Sugar: For dusting (optional)

Method

Step 1: Prepare the Tangerine Mixture

  1. Wash the 6 organic tangerines thoroughly. Slice them, keeping the peel on for added flavor and zest.
  2. Add the tangerine slices to a blender along with 250 g sugar and 80 ml milk. Blend until smooth.

Step 2: Combine Ingredients

  1. Add the 3 eggs and 300 g flour to the blender. Blend to combine.
  2. Finally, add the 16 g baking powder and blend for about 5 minutes, or until the batter becomes frothy and smooth.

Step 3: Prepare for Baking

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  2. Grease a cake pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.

Step 4: Bake the Cake

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. To check if the cake is done, insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.

Step 5: Finishing Touches

  1. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  2. Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for an elegant finish.

Serving Suggestions

Tips for the Perfect Tangerine Cake

  • Tangerines: Use organic tangerines with a thin peel to avoid bitterness. Remove any seeds before blending.
  • Blending: Ensure the tangerine mixture is smooth to avoid chunks in the batter.
  • Flour: Sift the flour before adding it to the blender for a lighter texture.
  • Storage: Store the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
