Recipe Description
Incredibly moist cake full of a fresh citrus flavor! With olive oil cakes, it’s important to not add too much olive oil. Yes, it will make them incredibly moist, but olive oil itself has its own flavor that sometimes doesn’t go well with other flavors. My first cake test for this recipe definitely had way too much of it. The flavor was overbearing and sort of.. well, unpleasant. I made some tweaks to my recipe and tried it again. I am one pleased lady with the results.
