Recipe for Soft Semolina Crown with Orange and Almond

Preheat the oven to 170 degrees. Butter and flour a bundt pan (or another type). Separate the egg whites from the yolks.

In a mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar with the softened butter until you achieve a creamy consistency. Add the egg yolks and then 50 ml of orange juice. Mix well. Incorporate the semolina, baking powder, and ground almonds.

Whip the egg whites until stiff with a pinch of salt. Gently fold them into the previous mixture using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.

To finish, pour the mixture into the mold and slide it into the oven for about 35 minutes. When it comes out of the oven, pierce the cake from side to side with a fine needle, then drizzle it with the remaining orange juice. Wait a few minutes, then unmold it by turning it onto a plate. Allow the cake to cool slightly, then dust it with powdered sugar. Enjoy it warm or cold.
