I made a few significant changes to my Orange Pie and it tastes much better, so I thought I would re-post it. The texture reminds me a little bit of a lemon bar, which is what I'm working on next, using this recipe. I also whipped up a quick glaze that compliments it wonderfully. Hope you enjoy this improved recipe as much as we do :-)
Orange Pie:
Boil 1 whole large orange (peel and all) for about 80 minutes.
Remove. Rinse in a bowl of fresh piping hot water for one minute.
Let the orange cool until you can touch it.
Remove half of the peel.
Add the orange (now missing half of it's peel) to your food processor, after putting in the blade.
Puree. Add:
Add the orange (now missing half of it's peel) to your food processor, after putting in the blade.
Puree. Add:
1/4 cup tapioca flour
3/4 cup coconut flour
2 tbsp coconut oil
1/4 tsp vanilla liquid stevia
1/3 cup honey
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder (Grain-free Baking Powder Recipe)
Puree.
While pureeing, drop in 4 eggs.
Pour into a springform pan, lined with unbleached parchment paper.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes.
Let cool before adding glaze.
Glaze:
Add to blender:
2 tbsp cashew milk
2 tbsp coconut milk
2 tbsp honey
2 tsp tapioca flour
2 tsp Chia Seeds (to thicken and add omegas 3 & 6)
about 2 drops of orange extract (measure on a spoon, not over the glaze, in case it spills out)
Puree
Pour glaze over cooled pie and let it set. Or eat it immediately if you have no patience like me ;-)

Wow Kelly your glaze idea is brilliant. Who would of thought to use chia seeds -- you of course!
I am printing it off to try sometime soon I hope! I bet my kids will adore it.
Keep up all of the amazing grain-free recipes! :)
Amazing! I love how inventive you are with foods that are typically sugar-laden, such as frostings and glazes. Great job!
Mmm, this looks irresistible, will have to give it a try! :)
Orange creamsicle is one of my all time favorite flavors. This one looks fantastic. Removing half the peel is a good idea too because the rind makes it bitter. I made a cake with whole tangerines and the texture was amazing but the taste was bitter.
Thank you!!
This looks great...coconut flour is so soothing (and nutritious!). I'm curious to know what the rinsing in hot water after boiling does to the orange...
-M, I just think it helps with removing the bitterness.
Oh my goodness, I think I just died and went to heaven. :)
looks great! i just had one question before attempting this: what happens to the orange seeds? do they just grind up in the processor?
can you use a regular cake pan?!?! I am making now and don't have a springform pan!! please respond ASAP! thanks :)
