- Sprinkle with the 3 tablespoons of brown sugar, and then lay out the Sunkist Navel orange slices in a pretty pattern.

- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt, and then add this mixture to the sugar mixture
- Add plumped oat mixture and pecans, and mix until well combined.
- Without moving the patterned orange layer, add batter into the cake pan carefully, and then lightly rap pan on counter to release any bubbles.
