Pan di mandarin, a soft and fragrant dessert

Preparing the tangerine pan is really simple: just combine all the ingredients in a mixer and blend. Here is our recipe.

If you are looking for a quick and easy dessert perfect for the winter , the mandarin pan is the one for you. Its preparation is inspired by the more classic orange bread , a Sicilian recipe that involves the use of a whole orange in all its parts (peel and white parts included) for the preparation of a soft and fragrant dessert .

The sweet tangerine pan instead uses, as it is easy to guess, tangerines . It is a simple recipe where all the ingredients are put in a mixer and smoothed. The important thing is to choose organic mandarins , preferably with a thin skin, and untreated. This butter-free cake is perfect for breakfast, as a snack but also to be served at the end of a meal.
