Description

This tender olive oil cake recipe is infused with fresh citrus flavor. This cake is really easy to make (no mixer required). I used blood orange here, but feel free to use lemon, orange or any fresh citrus fruit you’d like (see tips on how to change up this recipe above). Recipe yields 1 loaf cake.

Ingredient:

  • Cake
  • 1 ½ cups white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons citrus zest (I used 2 blood oranges here)
  • ¼ cup fresh citrus juice
  • 1 cup sugar (I used organic cane sugar)
  • ¾ cup plain whole-milk yogurt
  • 3 eggs
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Glaze (optional, see other ideas above recipe)
  • ⅓ cup powdered sugar (here’s how to make your own)
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons fresh citrus juice
