1

Preheat oven to 350ºF and oil a 9” round pan.

2

Mix the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt) together in a large bowl.

3

Create a well in the flour mix and add olive oil, Greek yogurt and eggs. Whisk into the flour mixture.

4

Add lemon juice and zest and stir until completely combined and there are no lumps.

5

Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

6

Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with a dollop of Greek yogurt and raspberries, if desired.

Notes

Storage: The cake will be kept for 4 days in an airtight container. If frosted, it needs to be kept refrigerated.

Freezing: You can freeze the cake for up to 3 months. Store in a freezer safe container or aluminum foil. Thaw in the fridge overnight before decorating or serving.

Substitutions: Use cake flour rather than all purpose flour for an extra fluffy cake. Do not substitute the olive oil.
