Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    This is so light! Easy and tasty.
    I made the following adjustments, I'll increase the sugar a little bit, it was borderline not quite sweet enough!

    Reduced sugar (and used coconut sugar) to 75g
    Butter was 230 g
    small oranges, so used 1.5 oranges juice
    added a 1/4 cup rolled oats with coconut and flour to add a little moistness

    Combined 2 dessertspoons coconut sugar with about a 1/4 cup of juice from some cumquats that had been boiled for jam, added about an 1/8 of a cup water, simmered for a minute, for a bittersweet drizzle.

    Great recipe, thank you! I only had blood oranges and it had a lovely taste. It also made the icing pink and I sprinkled shredded coconut on top too.
