Clementine Cake (GF 4 servings)

There is a reason this cake has been beloved for generations — it is one of those recipes that seems almost too simple for how extraordinary the result is. Whole clementines, boiled until tender and fragrant, blended skin and all into a batter that bakes into something deeply moist, intensely citrusy, and golden all the way through. No flour, no fuss — just the pure, sweet, slightly floral flavor of clementine in every single bite. And then comes the chocolate glaze. Rich, glossy dark chocolate poured over the top in a finish that is as dramatic as it is delicious — the bittersweet depth of the chocolate playing against the bright sweetness of the clementine in a pairing that feels both classic and completely inspired. The kind of cake that needs nothing more than a moment on the counter and a sharp knife to be completely showstopping. Naturally gluten free, naturally beautiful, and naturally the first thing to disappear.

Reheating Instructions: Best enjoyed at room temperature — remove from the refrigerator 15-20 minutes before serving to let the flavors fully bloom and the chocolate glaze soften slightly. For a warm slice, microwave individual portions for 20-30 seconds. Wonderful with a spoonful of creme fraiche alongside. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
