BACKYARD CITRUS UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch round cake pan and line it with parchment paper.
- Start by making the upside-down layer:
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Remove the pan from the heat and add ½ cup of the sugar and 2 tablespoons of water. Whisk the mixture until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is glossy and thickened a little. Pour the melted butter and sugar into the prepared cake pan and smooth into an even layer to cover the bottom. Place the cake pan in the freezer until the butter and sugar layer freezes; leave the pan in the freezer until you are ready to transfer the batter to the pan.
- In a small bowl, gently toss the lemon slices with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar. Leave the lemon slices in the sugar to macerate for 10 minutes.
- While the upside-down layer freezes, make the cake batter:
- Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Set aside. Combine the eggs with the olive oil in another large bowl and beat vigorously with a whisk until well combined. Add the yogurt and sugar. Make a well in the flour mixture and add the wet mixture in three additions, folding in each addition until no dry bits of flour remain. Set aside.
- Fan the lemon slices out to cover the melted butter and sugar in the cake pan, overlapping the slices by as much as 1⁄8 inch. Pour the cake batter directly on top of the lemon slices.
- Bake for about 1 hour, until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs clinging to it. Transfer to a wire cooling rack and let cool for 15 minutes. Invert the cake onto a serving plate and carefully remove the parchment-paper lining. Allow the cake to cool for 1 hour more before serving.
- Note: This cake can be made with nearly any citrus, my favorite being lemon because I like it to be bitter and tart. The only citrus I would not use is raw grapefruit, oro blanco, or lime. The rinds of grapefruit and oro blanco are much thicker than lemons and oranges and they will take longer to bake. Lime and grapefruit also retain too much of the bitter quinine flavor and will make for an odd-tasting cake
BAKED CITRUS ROUNDS
I got this recipe several years ago from a cookbook called The Treasury of Favorite Brand Name Recipes. We have it often as a side dish when I serve our favorite spicy Caribbean dish, because the succulent citrus rounds nicley complement the savory spice blends featured in that Caribbean dish. I think it would also be great with other spicy cuisines as well....perhaps as a side dish to accompany a zesty Italian dish or a spicy Mexican entree. It's very simple to prepare, and it uses only 4 common ingredients. I hope you like it.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°.
- Peel both oranges and the grapefruit; discard the peels. Slice all the cirtus fruits into thin rounds (about 1/4" thick). Place the citrus rounds on an ungreased baking sheet, overlapping the edges just a bit.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and stir until thoroughly blended. Place about a teaspoon of the sugar mixture on the top of each citrus round. Using the back of the spoon, spread the sugar mixture evenly over the top of the citrus rounds.
- Bake in the oven (at 400°) for about for 5 or 7 minutes, or until the fruit slices are heated through.
- Serve immediately, while the fruit slices are still warm.
