Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter and flour your cake pan.
• Wash oranges thoroughly to remove pesticide and wax residue. Slice tops and bottoms off of the oranges to remove the thickest part of the skin and discard.

• In a bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
• In a large bowl, beat eggs thoroughly and gradually add sugar until mixture is thick and lemon-colored. Add vanilla and optional almond extract.
