There is nothing like the aroma of orange in sweets!!!
Whether it is summer or winter.
I went to the supermarket to buy vegetables but the whole place smelled of orange from the fresh juice they made in store. As if I were hypnotized by the smell, I put a net of oranges in my basket.
I got home and the smell of freshly squeezed oranges did not leave from my nostrils.
I wanted to make an orange pie, but on the one hand I did not have any eggs and on the other hand I want it to be light.
I wish I could convey the aroma and taste to you!!!
Tip: Check off the ingredients you have used in the recipe or note the ingredients you have and add the rest to you shopping list to buy them.

Wash the oranges well and remove the stalk from the top. Cut them into pieces keeping the peel but removing the seeds. Place them in the blender and mash them very well (whole, with the skin). If necessary, add a couple of tablespoons of water to help mashing.
Place a non-stick pan on medium to high heat, add oil and polenta and stir constantly with a wooden spoon, until it is slightly cooked. Add water, sugar and orange pulp and continue stirring until the water is completely absorbed.
Place it in a pan, spreading it well so that it is about 1.5 cm / 1/2 inch thick. Let it cool and cut it into cubes of about 2.5-3 cm/ 1 inch.
Prepare the syrup and pour it over. Place an almond in the centre of each piece. Let it rest (if we can of course) for at least 2 hours to absorb the syrup.

Tips:
- I always use extra virgin olive oil in everything I do because it’s healthier and it doesn’t smell to me. But you can use sunflower or corn oil.
- You can add the almonds to the mixture at the end.
Good luck and bon appetit!!
