Made with only a handful of ingredients, this Olive Oil Cake highlights the light floral notes from the olive oil and is so wonderfully moist and tender. Light, fluffy, and zesty, this cake is a comforting and foolproof recipe that anyone can make. This simple cake is perfect for any occasion or as a snack with a cup of tea or coffee. I actually love this cake SO much that I made it for my birthday cake this year!

I think this cake is something I would enjoy because it doesn't have icing or frosting. A piece of cake like this is perfect with a cup of tea or after-dinner coffee. Thank you, John. Blessings for 2023.

I used to work at an Italian restaurant and we had a version of this cake on the menu. We made it with Grand Marnier and orange zest. And it also had a marsala wine/simple syrup soak that really made the flavor spectacular. Served simply with whipped cream. It was divine. I can’t wait to try your version John!

A little awkward to post this on John's page, but Claire Saffitz's olive oil cake sounds really similar to the one you are describing - she also uses Grand Marnier and (blood) orange zest. Here's the link to her version, if you're curious: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gceWqc-l0c6wgmw.html. That said, I'll be making John's olive oil cake for my best friend's birthday this weekend :)

And of course, your clear step by step showing makes it such a do-able thing to want to make. The only thing I'm not fond of is the name "olive oil cake" so I'll have to come up with a name I like better after I make & taste this moist-cloud-crunch-top cake.

Just made this today and O. M. G. It's so moist and delicious that words fail me in describing just how delicious it is. Thank you, John! One observation: I followed the recipe to the letter and my batter was more liquid than John's, in fact no leveling was necessary because owing to its liquid consistency, it self-leveled. This made me a little concerned, but the finished product looks just like John's. Not sure what to make of any of this, but there it is. Treat yourself to one of THE most superb cakes you'll ever eat!

@gracealsterberg2618 Ай бұрын

I agree. I'm baking the cake right now. I noticed that the cake batter seemed watery. I did not measure the flour in cups, but with my scale. 2 cups of flour equals 250 gm. The oil, milk and sugar I measured in cups only. Not measuring the flour in accurate grams I think made the difference in the batter. This is my conclusion. Thanks @winkielaroo, at least I wasn't the only one this happened to.

This cake is absolutely delicious! I was hesitant about the extra olive oil, but I went on ahead and it is now one of my favorite cakes. I plan to make it again soon. I will mention, which didn't make any difference in the end. The flour measurement at 240 gm is not correct. I used my scale and I used the 240 gm. The batter came out watery, not like yours on the video. I baked it anyway and it still turned out beautifully. 250 gm is the correct amount. But John this is a wonderful cake no matter how you put it. Thanks for your hard work and great recipes.

General tip for people who have difficulty with leavening agents not working or tasting weird, try out the box angle food cake mix. Its VERY potent stuff, helps your cake rise amazingly and barely affects the flavor. Use sparingly, a few spoon fulls go a long way.

@RoninXDarknight Жыл бұрын

Baking Powder/Soda also have expiration dates when it comes to their leavening abilities (usually about 6 months after opening) so replacing them on occasion if that's what you're using them for is also a good idea.
