1½ c all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 to 3 blood oranges
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ c low or full-fat milk
½ tsp sea salt
2 tbsp fresh turmeric, freshly grated
4 large Eggs
1 c plus 1 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
1 c granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cardamom
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat it to 175 degrees C or 350 degrees F. Place the rack in the middle of the oven.
Brush the inside of a 9-inch cake pan with butter. Melt the rest for later use.
Remove about 1/2-inch from the top and bottom of each orange. Remove the skin by slicing through each orange.
When you remove the skin of the orange, horizontally slice each into round pieces.
Arrange the slices to the bottom of the prepared cake pan. Make sure to leave a small space between each slice.
Place a saucepan on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add the freshly grated turmeric and milk. Stir until well blended and simmer for a few minutes. Remove from the heat.
Add flour, salt, cardamom, and baking powder into a large bowl. Whisk everything until well incorporated.
Add vanilla, sugar, and eggs into a separate mixing bowl. Whisk to combine.
Strain the turmeric mixture.
Create a small well in the middle of the flour mixture, then add the egg mixture to it. Mix until well incorporated.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking sheet over the orange slices. Bake for 30 minutes or until done.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.
Serve and enjoy!
