Organic orange sponge cake recipe

The original recipe is published in a thermomix book called “Cocina Fácil y Saludable” (I think that in English the name is “The Basic Cook Book”) but I’ve made some amendments in order to use more unknown ingredients, like whole grain spelt flour and oat milk. I hope you enjoy it, it is one of my favourite desserts!!

Ingredients (all of them organic!):

1 juicy orange  

3 eggs

100g of olive oil

120g of oat milk

250g of whole grain spelt flour

15g of baking powder

250g of brown cane sugar

Grated coconut

A pinch of salt

Preparation (with Thermomix):

1.-  Place in your Thermomix the sugar, the orange (cut in four) and the eggs and process for 3 minutes, speed 5.

2.- Add in the oil and the oat milk and process for 15 seconds, speed 3.

3.- Add in the flour, the baking powder and the salt and process for 15 seconds, speed 3. When the time is over, stir for a few seconds with a spatula until the mix looks even.

4.- Grease and flour the sides of the cake tin (should be about 24cm) and pour the mix into it. Bake the sponge cake for 35 minutes in a 180 degrees oven.

5.- When it is cooked, let it cool for 10 minutes and then take it out the tin. Let it cool again, preferably on a rack. Once it is completely cold, add the grated coconut as icing and enjoy!
