How To Make one bowl olive oil pound cake
-
Step 1Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a bread loaf pan with olive oil. Place parchment paper in the loaf pan and secure it with two clips to ensure the pound cake won’t stick to the pan.
-
Step 2Pour the sugar into a large bowl and add the lemon zest. Use your fingers to combine, rubbing the zest into the sugar until it resembles wet sand.
-
Step 3Add the olive oil and use an electric mixer to mix together on medium-low speed for roughly one minute until combined.
-
Step 4Add the eggs one at a time, beating between each addition on medium speed for roughly 30-45 seconds at a time to thoroughly combine.
-
Step 5Pour in the vanilla extract and mix before adding the lemon juice. Mix again.
-
Step 6Add the baking powder and salt. Mix on low speed to combine.
-
Step 7Add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, folding it into the batter with a whisk.
-
Step 8Once all the flour is combined, slowly add the almond milk as you whisk.
-
Step 9Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake on the center rack for 1 hour.
-
Step 10Allow to cool in the pan for 20 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool another 20 minutes.
-
Step 11Serve warm and enjoy!
