Orange Olive Oil Cake
12 Ingredients - 9 Steps - 1h 20m
This orange olive oil cake is "rustic Italian” and has great taste - the extra-virgin olive oil contributes a fruity nose, while a restrained amount of sugar makes way for the essence of the orange, with its complex sweetness and fragrant, bittersweet flavor. Blood oranges, with their vibrant red pulp, are preferred in this recipe but if they aren’t available, Cara Cara or regular oranges make a nice substitute.
