zest of an orange
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup (160g) ground walnuts
The Wet Ingredients:
1 and 1/3 cup (330ml) light olive oil
Flax egg: 4 tablespoons ground flax seeds plus 1/2 cup (125 ml) water
1 and 1/3 cup orange juice
1 cup (220g) granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 °F, 180 °C.

Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk together. Zest the orange prior to juicing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil, sugar, vanilla extract, flax egg, and whisk together.
Add the baking soda to the orange juice and mix. It will rise so, do this over the wet ingredients. Add to the bowl and whisk together.

Bake on the center rack for about 35 minutes or until springy to the touch. A toothpick inserted in the center of the cake should come out clean.
Cool completely and dust with confectioner's sugar.
Serve with Greek coffee. Kali Orexi!
Notes
A can (425g) of pure pumpkin puree can be used as an egg substitute in place of the flax-egg.

Easy Cranberry Walnut Cake Recipe - Eat Simple Food
Recipe:
This simple and delicious cranberry walnut cake recipe is made with eggs, sugar, butter, and flour. It is very easy to make and also festive and tasty around Christmas, Thanksgiving, and the fall.
This cranberry nut cake recipe was given to me by my mother in law from Germany. Generally, any recipe she gives me is delicious and fairly straight forward. Serve it as is or with Fresh Whipped Cream.
I don't generally like baking because it's very precise compared to cooking, it's time and space intensive, I prefer savory over sweet, and it's sticky to clean. Having said all that, I do occasionally get the baking and sweet bug around the holidays and this cranberry walnut cake is one of my favorite recipes.
Serving Size: 8
Ingredients:
-6 oz (¾ cup) butter, melted
-10 oz (1 ¼ cup) sugar
- 2 eggs
-4 ½ oz (1 cup) all purpose flour
-1 ¼ tsp baking powder
-2 oz (½ cup) walnut pieces
-8 oz (2 cups) raw fresh cranberries
Instructions:
-Preheat oven to 350F.
-Grease a 9 springform cake pan with butter (you can also use a regular pan but springboard will make your life easier).
-Use walnut pieces or add the walnuts to a quart size ziploc bag and smash (hit) with the back of a big spoon until pieces are broken up. (see video)
-With a hand mixer, mix together melted butter and sugar for 2 minutes. Add eggs for 1 minute.
-Add flour and baking powder and mix until combined.
-Fold in (not with the mixer) the cranberries and walnuts by hand. The batter will be thick.
-Spoon into pan and level top with a spatula.
-Bake 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clear.
-Cool completely (~ an hour) and run a knife along the edges of the pan to help separate it from the pan.
-Serve with ice cream or fresh whipped cream.
Happy Eating! Beckie
This recipe is for a cranberry cake using fresh cranberries. Working with frozen cranberries? Defrost them first so you don't add extra liquid to the cake.
Remember to grease your springform pan or you will have problems getting the cake out in one piece. Also, let the cake cool about an hour before slicing. It is very moist and you want it to set so the slices are solid.
TIP: Did your cranberry cake fall apart because you tried to get it out while it was still too hot or forgot to grease the pan? Don't panic. Tear it apart, crumb cake style, and serve with a spoon and a side of ice cream or whipped cream.
Did I mention that this cake is delicious for breakfast? ????
Cranberry Walnut Cake Recipe FAQS:
Can I use frozen cranberries in this cranberry walnut cake?
Yup. Defrost them first so there is no added liquid to the cake. Strain any liquid and use it for some festive cocktail or add to fizzy water.
Can dried cranberries be used instead of fresh cranberries?
I haven't done it but I would try in a pinch and think it will work. Soak the cranberries for ~ 5 minutes with hot hot water to rehydrate them. Toss the soaking liquid or add to fizzy water or favorite bevvie.
The liquid should be sweetish because dried cranberries have already concentrated the sugar. Taste the cranberries. If they are still sweet, decrease the sugar in this cranberry walnut cake recipe by 20% (~2 oz or ¼ cup)
