Self-raising flour

225g

Orange

1

Lemon

1

You will also need…

900g loaf tin lined with baking parchment

Step 1 of 7

Zest half of the lemon and orange and wrap this in a piece of kitchen paper for decorating the cake later.

Step 2 of 7

Place the orange and lemon into a pan of boiling water and weigh down with a lid or bowl to keep them under the water while they simmer for 1 hour.

Step 3 of 7

Whilst boiling the orange and lemon, preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C for fan ovens), Gas Mark 4. Or get your slow cooker out of the cupboard if you have one!

Step 4 of 7

Drain the fruit, leave to cool for 5 minutes, then halve and deseed.  Place the pieces of fruit – skin and all into a food processor.  Blend until smooth. 

Step 5 of 7

Take 1 tablespoon of condensed milk from the can and reserve this for drizzling over the cake once its baked.  Pour the blended fruit into a large mixing bowl, add the rest of the condensed milk and flour and mix together. 

Step 6 of 7

Pour the mixture into the lined tin and bake for 40 minutes or place in your slow cooker on HIGH for 2 ½ hours.  Remove and allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.  

Step 7 of 7

Decorate with the reserved condensed milk and zest and serve. 

We love this moist cake with a dollop of creme fraiche or custard!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Clements cake Made this cake today, there was a lovely smell in my kitchen as the orange & lemon simmered away for an hour. The cake did not go down well in my house. To stodgy & tasted of peel, however I actually liked it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice cake treat for someone with an egg allergy. Made this for my Mum who has an egg allergy. Quite 'heavy' when served cold but much better when served warm as a dessert. Lovely flavour and very easy to make.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Beautiful Flavour This is a super easy cake and the flavour is amazing, I did end up with a soggy bottom though which is a real shame, any tips would be really helpful.
