Boil the oranges whole for about 1 hour, then let them cool. Remove any seeds and blend the oranges (peel included) into a puree.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
In a bowl, whisk eggs and sugar until fluffy. Add orange puree and mix well.
Fold in almond flour and baking powder.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool, then dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with honey before serving.

Pair it with a steaming espresso, and you’ll feel like you’re sitting in a café in Seville.
