This year seems to be the year we include veggies in new and unusual places. This is just such a recipe. Orange, cranberry, walnuts and...mini sweet bell peppers!
Oil gives the cake a beautiful moist texture and the candied pecans and orange slices give it a lovely nutty, fruity sweetness that’s just perfect. We serve this topped with cardamom and a little reduced orange syrup.
We were inspired to make this dessert by a dish we had seen but not tried before. Since the dates are so sweet, the filling does not need to be…We love how the orange flavor in the filling is subtle, but is definitely there.
