- 3 pcs [Eggs](https://fridge.menu/en/i/eggs)
- 200 g [Sugar](https://fridge.menu/en/i/sugar)
- 250 g [Carrot](https://fridge.menu/en/i/carrot)
- 150 g [Vegetable Oil](https://fridge.menu/en/i/vegetable-oil)
- 100 ml [Orange Juice](https://fridge.menu/en/i/orange-juice)
- 1 pcs [Orange Zest](https://fridge.menu/en/i/orange-zest)
- 200 g [Flour](https://fridge.menu/en/i/flour)

## Steps

1. Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the sugar and beat with a mixer until light and fluffy.
2. Wash and peel the carrots, weigh them, cut into pieces and blend until finely chopped.
3. Pour the vegetable oil straight into the blender jug and blend again together with the carrot.
4. Add the chopped carrot and oil to the egg and sugar mixture and stir together.
5. Flavour the batter with the orange zest and 100 ml of orange juice.
6. Sieve in the flour and baking powder, add to the batter and mix until smooth.
7. Fold in the almond flour or finely chopped blanched almonds.
8. Spoon the batter into a silicone half-sphere mould 8 cm in diameter, not quite filling to the edges.
9. Bake in a preheated fan oven at 170°C for 15 minutes, or in a conventional oven at 180°C for 15-20 minutes. (18 min)
10. Check with a wooden skewer: it should come out dry.
11. Bake two cakes first as a test, to work out the exact baking time needed.
12. Let the cakes cool completely, remove from the mould and serve in paper cases.
