    Yum! I used sunflower seeds instead of almonds and it worked a treat. I added 80gm coconut sugar and a dash of maple syrup.

    what an amazing cake! so tasty, the whole oranges give it a really different flavour. I steamed baby carrots while the oranges were cooking and they got a delicious citrus flavour.
