Ingredients
4 large Longo’s Enriched Coop Eggs, separated
2 tbsp orange zest
2/3 cup granulated sugar, divided
1 1/2 cups Longo’s Ground Almonds
1/2 tsp almond extract
Pinch salt
Directions
In a bowl, beat egg yolks, orange zest and 1/2 cup of the sugar using an electric hand mixer for 3 minutes or until thickened and ribbons form when beaters are lifted. Stir in almonds and almond extract.
Clean beaters; in another bowl, beat egg whites with salt until foamy. Gradually add remaining sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Stir half of the egg white mixture into almond mixture to lighten the batter. Fold in remaining egg white mixture until combined.

Bake in preheated 350°F oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until cake is golden and tester inserted in centre comes out clean. Let cool in pan on rack for 10 minutes.
