Total time: 1 h 30 min
Yield: 10 serving(s)
Ingredients: 5 or 6 seedless clementines, peeled and thinly sliced; 3/4 cup (180 ml) homemade marmalade, hot; 1 cup (250 ml) ground almonds; 3/4 cup (180 ml) unbleached all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon (5 ml) baking powder; 1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) salt; 2 seedless clementines, peels and pith removed, cubed; 1 cup (250 ml) sugar; 1/4 cup (60 ml) unsalted butter, melted; 3 eggs

Preparation

- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 170°C (325°F). Line the bottom of a 20-cm (8-inch) springform pan with parchment paper. Butter the sides.
- Arrange half the clementine slices, overlapping, on the bottom and sides of the pan, stopping 2 cm (3/4 inch) from the rim. Brush with 60 ml (1/4 cup) marmalade. Cover with the remaining clementine slices, taking care not to leave any gaps. Brush with 60 ml (1/4 cup) marmalade. Set aside.
- In a bowl, combine the ground almonds, flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
- In a food processor, purée the clementine cubes with the sugar and butter. Add the eggs and mix until fully combined. Add the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Scrape the batter into the pan, covering the clementine slices. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool for about 10 minutes. Run the tip of a knife around the cake before unlatching the pan. Place upside down on a plate and unmould. Brush with the remaining warm marmalade. Let cool completely before serving.
