Best Olive Oil Citrus Cake.

I love olive oil.  I use it in pretty much everything.  Even stuff you wouldn't normally use olive oil in.  This recipe came about because I didn't have any butter but wanted to make a cake.  I combined a few recipes and I substituted the butter for olive oil.  Best decision I ever made.  I made this with a food processor because I don't have a zester.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 tsps baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup powdered sugar + 2 tbsps
• 3 large eggs
• Zest and juice of one lemon
• Zest and juice of one orange
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• Cooking spray

Directions:

1.  Pre-heat oven 350 degrees 

2.  In large bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. In food processor add the skin of one lemon and one orange without the pith(white layer).  Pulse until fine.

4.  Add cup powdered sugar.  Pulse to combine.

5.  Add beaten eggs.  Pulse.

6.  Add milk.  Pulse.  Add orange and lemon juice.  Pulse.

7.  Add olive oil.  Pulse. 

8.  Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients.  Mix gently to combine.

9.  Pour batter into lightly greased bundt pan.

10. Bake 25 minutes or until cake is golden.

Let cool completely then sprinkle with powdered sugar.

This cake is better the next day.  If you can wait that long.
