How to Make Clementine Cake

Boil 6-8 whole clementines (including skin and stems) in 4 cups of water for 120 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch deep cake tin.
Once the clementines are boiled, let them cool slightly. Then, carefully remove the stems.
Add the cooled clementines (including the skin, but removing the stems), 1 cup of blanched almonds, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 4 large eggs to a food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely in the tin before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional).
