Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Lightly butter the Tupperware silicone heart mould.

  2. Zest the orange and squeeze its juice with the Tupperware Zest 'n Press.

  3. In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks with the sugar until pale and frothy. Add the oil, orange juice and zest and mix to a smooth batter.

  4. Sift the flour with the baking powder and fold it in a little at a time.

  5. Whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks. Fold them into the batter with a spatula, lifting from the bottom so they stay airy.

  6. Pour the batter into the mould, smooth the top and bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until golden and a knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.

  7. Leave to cool for a few minutes before turning out. Serve warm or cold.
