Lorissa's Olive Oil Cake

Lorissa's Olive Oil Cake

This is a special recipe that comes from our boss's cousin Lorissa, it's a moist cake with a rich citrusy flavor that's perfect served cold as a Summer dessert. It's a family favorite and one you'll be sure to enjoy! 

What you'll need:

  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 1/4 cup of orange juice
  • 1 1/4 Milk
  • 1 1/2 Bari Traditional olive oil
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1 orange

Mix all of the ingredients above together on low speed in a stand mixer until well-combined. 

  • 2 cups of flour 
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder 
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda 
  • 1 tsp. salt

Slowly incorporate your dry ingredients, mix on slow until combined. Don't overbeat the mixture or you'll get a tough cake rather than a soft cake. 

You will need a 10 inch round greased cake pan, pour in your mixture, should be a watery smooth consistency. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes to 1 hour.

Serve with powdered sugar over the top, lime zest, homemade whipped cream, and fresh berries!
