Ingredients

Preparation for Bundt Pan

Bundt Cake

  • 1 large navel orange

Dry Ingredients

Wet Ingredient Group

  • 1 cups Granulated Swerve
  • 1/2 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 6 extra large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 Orange
  • 1/2 teaspoon orange extract

Orange Glaze

Instructions

  • Spray liners with baking spray. This batter may make more than 12 depending on the liners you are using.
  • Preheat oven to 350 Degrees. Keep on bake, not convection bake if oven has that mode to keep from browning, but it's fine to use a convection oven too.

Orange Mixture

  • Wash Navel orange and trim off the bottom, if necessary.
  • Cut into quarters. Put in cold water. Bring to boil for 30 minutes. Drain. Reserve 1/4 cup water.
  • Add to Vitamix or super blender. Pulse until you have a texture of course puree, with a little bit of zest showing. Add orange extract. You may need to add a little of the reserved water in bottom of blender. Set aside to cool. This can be made up to 3 days ahead and refrigerated. It can also be made ahead and frozen.

Dry Ingredients

  • Whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, xanthan gum, Swerve granulated. Set aside.

Make Batter

  • Beat eggs for five minutes. I use my whipping wand.
  • Slowly stream in oil.
  • Add vanilla extract.
  • Add orange mixture to batter.
  • Add dry mixture beating on low.
  • Use an Ice cream scoop to scoop batter onto each liner.
    Unbaked Orange Muffin
  • Bake for 18 to 22 minutes depending on what liner you use. Use a food thermometer. It needs to be between 207 and 210 F.
  • Cool completely before adding glaze.

Glaze

  • Mix confectioner's with water and a dash of orange extract, until you have a pourable glaze you can drizzle.

Notes

Swerve Confection: You can also use another brand such as Lakanto.
You can skip the glaze and sprinkle with confectioner's sweetener as an option.
