Recipe Ingredients

6		Oranges (medium)
1/3 cup	78ml	Extra-virgin olive oil
4		Eggs
1/2 teaspoon	2.5ml	Salt
1 cup	198g / 7oz	Sugar
1 1/4 cups	78g / 2.8oz	Flour (high gluten)
1 tablespoon	15ml	Baking powder

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F and oil a 9-inch round cake pan.

Remove zest from all oranges and juice from one. Set fruit aside for another use.

In a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, beat eggs and salt together until frothy and light (about 2 minutes). Slowly add sugar while continuing to mix (about 2 more minutes). Sift the flour and baking soda together and gradually add to egg mixture. Mix about 1 more minute.

In a side bowl, mix olive oil, citrus zest and juice. Using a spoon, stir this into the egg mixture, just folding until all in. Pour batter into prepared pan and place in oven and bake 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean.

Cool to room temperature, cut into wedges and serve.
