- 1/3 cup almond flour 40g
- 2/3 cup caster sugar 170g

Instructions
- Finely grate the zest of half an orange then set aside. Peel the skin off the other half of the orange with a vegetable peeler, and place it in a pot with 1/4 of a cup of sugar. Add the juice of the orange and bring this to a boil. Add the apples and allow this to simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 180 C / 350 F
- While the apple is cooking/cooling - make the pastry. Place the flour, sugar, zest, and butter in a food processor and pulse until a soft dough forms. Remove
- Line a 20-23cm square cake tin with baking paper. Press 2/3 of the pastry into the bottom of the tin and flatten.
- Spoon out the apples from the liquid and remove the orange peel. Mix this in a bowl with the Xmas fruit mince.
- Spread the fruit mixture evenly over the surface of the pastry. Grate the remaining third of the pastry over the top. Scatter the slivered almonds and bake for 40 - 45 minutes until golden brown.
- Allow to cool, cut into squares, and dust with powdered sugar
