Polenta & orange syrup cake is a delightful dessert that combines the nutty texture of almonds with the vibrant flavor of fresh oranges. This cake is moist, aromatic, and perfect for special occasions or as a sweet treat to enjoy with a cup of tea.
- Make sure to thoroughly zest the oranges to get the full flavor in your cake.
- If you don't have almond flour, you can grind whole almonds in a food processor until they reach a fine consistency.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before pouring the orange syrup over it, so the syrup absorbs evenly.
- Use freshly squeezed orange juice for the best flavor.
- Line your cake pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make it easier to remove the cake after baking.
- Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy to ensure a good rise and airy texture.
This Polenta & orange syrup cake is not only flavorful but also rich in texture, thanks to the use of almonds and cornmeal. Serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream to elevate the experience. Enjoy the citrusy aroma and the perfect balance of sweetness with every bite.
