Orange pie

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   The preparation of the pie began with the separation of proteins from yolks. Then she grated the orange peel on a fine grater. I mixed the yolks with brown sugar (150 g), freshly squeezed orange juice 260 ml (approximately 4 oranges), vanilla sugar, zest and odorless vegetable oil and thoroughly whipped until smooth. Then, flour with baking powder was sifted into the resulting mixture and mixed until a homogeneous mass was obtained.

2. Step 2:

   

   In a separate container, I whipped egg whites with a pinch of salt until an airy dense mass was obtained, gradually added white sugar and whipped until the granulated sugar dissolved.

3. Step 3:

   

   I added about a third of the protein mixture to the orange dough and mixed it until a homogeneous mass was obtained. Then I added the remaining proteins and gently mixed until smooth. I poured the resulting dough into a prepared baking dish, greased with oil. I didn't cover the form with parchment, I have a non-stick mold. Lightly stirred to release random air bubbles.

5. Step 4:

   

   Placed the mold in the oven, preheated to 180 °, and baked for about 40-45 minutes. But everyone has different ovens, so you need to focus on your own. The readiness of the pie was checked with a wooden skewer, when it came out dry and clean – the pie was ready. I melted 72% dark chocolate in the microwave and poured the cooled cake. Decorated the top with orange slices and rosemary sprigs.
