Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by rinsing the whole oranges thoroughly under cool water. Then, place them in a saucepan, cover with water, and simmer for about 1 hour until tender. Drain and blend the oranges until smooth.
- While the oranges cool, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan with oil or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the orange puree, large eggs, honey, ground pistachios, almond flour, vanilla extract, and baking soda. Blend until completely smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, inserting a toothpick to check for doneness.
- Prepare the glaze by simmering fresh orange juice and honey in a saucepan over medium heat until reduced by half, about 10-15 minutes. Brush the warm glaze generously over the cake.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Once cooled, slice into wedges and serve.

Notes
Ensure the orange puree is completely smooth for a uniform texture. Check for doneness early to avoid over-baking. Brush on glaze while warm for better absorption.
