Citrus–Olive Oil Cake
I could go on and on about how much I love olive trees. I even have olive trees growing in my yard — and that’s just the beginning of my obsession. So, it didn’t take much convincing for me to try making a dessert with olive oil, and citrus is a natural pairing. I like to serve this cake with plain whipped cream and basil leaves for garnish. Or simply dust the top with confectioners’ sugar and call it a day.

1. Step
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Oil an 8-inch round cake pan and dust with confectioners’ sugar.
2. Step
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Step
In a larger bowl, whisk together the sugar, oil, eggs, milk, vanilla and almond extracts, grapefruit zest, and orange zest and juice. Using a spatula, gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until smooth.
