GREEK ALMOND-HONEY CAKE



Greek Almond-Honey Cake image

A traditional honey cake using almond meal instead of flour or semolina. Like many greek cakes, it is further enriched by a honey syrup, making it very rich. Greeks don't have a dessert like this after a meal - that would be too much of a good thing. Rather, we would have it with a cup of coffee in the early evening, after our afternoon siesta.

Time 1h

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 cups almond flour (if you can't get the flour, grind almonds up fairly fine with a couple of tablespoonfuls of sugar an)
4 eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 cups honey (greek thyme honey is excellent!)
1 cup yoghurt (go ahead, get the greek stuff)
1/2 cup blanched almond, coarsely chopped
4 tablespoons frozen orange juice concentrate
1 tablespoon fresh orange zest
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup blanched slivered almond
1 1/2 cups honey (yep, same stuff as you put in the cake)
1 1/2 cups orange juice

Steps:

  • Make the syrup first: bring 1 1/2 cups honey and 1 1/2 cups orange juice to a boil in a saucepan.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 5 min.
  • Skim surface of syrup for any froth that may form.
  • Allow syrup to cool.
  • For cake: Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Butter a 9 X 13 inch baking dish well.
  • Sift together almond flour and baking soda.
  • Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until you have a stiff meringue.
  • Combine egg yolks, honey, yoghurt, almonds, orange juice concentrate, and orange zest.
  • Stir into dry ingredients.
  • Gently fold in 1/4 of meringue mixture to lighten almond batter, and then fold in the rest.
  • It is OK to have a few white streaks.
  • Pour batter into baking pan.
  • Scatter blanched, slivered almonds over top.
  • Bake until top is golden, about 45 minutes, or until cake tester comes out clean.
  • Pour syrup over hot cake.
  • Poke cake gently with a toothpick to help cake absorb syrup.
  • Serve when cake is cool and syrup has been absorbed.
  • This cake is great served with a dollop of very lightly-sweetened whipped cream.

SEMOLINA AND GROUND ALMOND CAKE



Semolina and Ground Almond Cake image

Categories     Cake     Mixer     Nut     Dessert     Bake     Lemon     Almond     Brandy     Spring     Cinnamon     Clove

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup (2 sticks) plus 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
4 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups coarse semolina
2 scant teaspoons baking powder
1 cup finely ground blanched almonds
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
Pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups water
1 small cinnamon stick
4 to 5 whole cloves, to taste
One 1-inch strip lemon zest
2 tablespoons brandy

Steps:

  • 1. With an electric mixer in a large bowl, whip the cup of butter until soft. Add the confectioners' sugar a little at a time and whip until fluffy. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating after each addition. Add the vanilla and continue whipping for about 5 minutes.
  • 2. Combine the semolina, baking powder, almonds, and lemon zest in a small bowl. Slowly add the semolina mixture to the butter and sugar, beating to combine thoroughly.
  • 3. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a 12- by 18-inch glass baking pan. In a medium metal bowl, place the egg whites, salt, and lemon juice and whip with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold the meringue into the semolina mixture, working fast to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until set, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • 4. About 15 minutes before the samali is finished baking, prepare the syrup: Combine the granulated sugar and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. As soon as the sugar dissolves, add the spices, zest, and brandy. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the syrup is viscous, about 10 minutes.
  • 5. When the samali is baked, pull it out of the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 300°F. Score it into 3-inch square pieces with a sharp paring knife. Pour the warm syrup over the hot samali and place back in the oven. Bake until the syrup is absorbed, another 5 to 7 minutes, and remove from the oven. Let cool and serve.
