π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Beat eggs, brown sugar, honey, orange zest, cinnamon, and anise until glossy.
Fold in ground almonds and enough olive oil to make a thick, fragrant batter.
Spread the batter in a round pan and press toasted almonds lightly across the surface.
Bake until the cake is dark, springy, and a skewer comes out with moist crumbs.
Cool completely, dust the rim with powdered sugar, and cut into small wedges.
