Orange Olive Oil Cake

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a greased 8-inch round baking pan with parchment. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the eggs on high speed for three minutes. Gradually add the granulated sugar, beating until the mixture has thickened. Gradually beat in the olive oil, then beat in the milk, orange zest and orange juice until combined.

Step 2

In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt. Fold the flour mixture into the egg mixture just until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, and use a mini offset spatula, a butter knife or the back of a spoon to spread the batter evenly.

Step 3

Bake the olive oil cake with orange until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cake completely to room temperature in the pan. Then, take the cake out of the pan and remove the parchment.

Step 4

Dust the cake with confectioners' sugar and cut slices for serving. Enjoy!
