Vasilopita NYE Cake
Springform pan 26cm in diameter
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 1 hour 15 minutes
INGREDIENTS:
350g self-raising flour, gluten-free, sifted (White Wings)
200g almond flour
250g butter, at room temperature (dairy-free alternative optional)
200ml light olive oil
200ml freshly squeezed orange juice
100g caster sugar
100g brown sugar
6 eggs, at room temperature
¼ cup orange zest
2 teaspoons Mahlepi
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup flaked almonds
Optional for decorating:
Icing sugar
Slices of orange
Greek Basil
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 160C fan force. Lightly grease and line a 26cm springform pan or round baking dish.
2. Beat the butter and sugar: Beat the butter, caster sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer until butter is lighter in colour (approx. 3-4 minutes). Scrape down the sides every minute to combine well.
3. Add the remaining ingredients: Whilst the electric mixer is on, add one egg at a time and beat until combined well. Next add in the mahlepi, nutmeg, cinnamon, baking powder, and orange zest. Then add half the flour, almond flour, light olive oil, and orange juice and continue beating until well combined. Then add the remaining second half of the ingredients and continue beating until well combined and creamy (approx. 2-3 minutes).
5. Bake the cake: Pour the cake mixture into the baking dish and garnish with almond flakes around the outer circle of the cake. (Optional to insert a coin wrapped in baking paper and foil at this stage or after it is baked). Place the cake into the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Check if the cake is cooked by inserting a toothpick in the centre, and if it comes out clean it is ready. If the cake browns too quickly, place a piece of baking paper over the top during the final 15 minutes.
7. Allow to cool and enjoy: Remove from oven and allow to cool at least 15 minutes before removing from pan. Allow to completely cool on a rack after removing.
8. Decorate and add the coin: At this point you can insert a coin (wrapped in baking paper and foil) into the bottom of the cake (if you did not do so before the baking process). Place onto a cake plate and sprinkle with icing sugar. Optional to decorate with flowers, Greek basil leaves and orange slices (as seen in photo).
