Gluten Free Lemon-Olive Oil Cake
Gluten Free Lemon-Olive Oil Cake
10
fromThis cake is created in a bowl with a quick whirl. No beaters, no stress - and still a juicy, lemon-scented delight emerges from the oven, with olive oil adding a gentle depth.
A light dusting of powdered sugar is all that's needed for decoration. But if you want to indulge, spoon some lemon yoghurt or mascarpone on top, add some fresh berries - and let life taste a little better for a moment.
