Ingredients
Scale
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
½ teaspoon of baking soda
¼ teaspoon of salt
¾ cup of granulated sugar
3 large eggs
½ cup of extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 lemon
½ cup of whole milk
Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven: Set it to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan with a little olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this aside.
Combine the wet ingredients: In another bowl, beat the sugar and eggs. Stir in the olive oil, vanilla, lemon zest, lemon juice, and milk until everything is nicely blended.
Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Don’t overmix.
Bake away: Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool it down: Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust with love: Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar for that little extra flair!
