How to Make Pistachio And Almond Cake With Orange Salad
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease and flour a 4x8 inch loaf pan.
- In a food processor, finely grind pistachios and almonds. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
- Add lemon zest and vanilla extract; mix until combined.
- Gradually add the ground nuts to the mixer on low speed, mixing until just incorporated.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the orange salad: Remove the peel and pith from the oranges. Slice oranges into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
- Gently heat the marmalade in a saucepan over low heat for 3 minutes, or until syrupy.
- Stir in the orange juice and lemon juice. Add 1-2 tablespoons of water to thin the marmalade to a vinaigrette consistency. Set aside to cool.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut the cooled cake into slices and place them on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 5 minutes, flipping halfway through, until warmed and slightly toasted.
- To serve, arrange orange slices on plates, drizzle with marmalade syrup. Place warm cake slices next to the oranges.
- Top with a dollop of yogurt (optional) and a few chopped pistachios.
- Serve immediately.
