Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

1.5 kg or 9 blood oranges or any sweet orange, preferably organic
18 dates, pitted

For the dressing:

1 t cinnamon
½ t cumin
2 t honey (optional)

Peel the oranges and slice them into very thin slices using an electric slicer or very sharp knife.
Line a round cake tin with clingfilm.
Tightly pack the sliced oranges in layers. When you are halfway, add a layer of chopped dates, setting aside 5 dates for the dressing.
Continue layering with oranges until completed. Use the palms of your hands to press down the oranges.

To make the dressing, blend the lemon juice, cinnamon, cumin and remaining dates. Add some honey if you like. Top the cake with crushed almonds and pour over the dressing.
