Classic Olive Oil Cake
this one's from Bake From Scratch and then lightly modified
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 1/2 c olive oil
- 1/2 c milk
- 1/2 tsp fiori di sicilia
- 1 1/2 c flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Beat together the 3 eggs and the 3/4 c sugar.
Mix in the olive oil, milk, and flavoring. (Original recipe calls for a mix of vanilla and almond extracts. I don't care for almond really, and I love the fiori here)
Mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Makes one 8 or 9 inch round cake or 12 cupcakes.
Bake the round for 30-33 minutes, the cupcakes for about 19-20 minutes
