Citrus Olive Oil Cake
This elegant cake balances the rich, fruity notes of olive oil with a refreshing burst of fresh orange juice and zest. By using our Fiber Gourmet Flour Blend, you get that perfectly moist, dense, and tender crumb characteristic of traditional Mediterranean olive oil cakes, but with a massive fiber boost and fewer calories. It is the perfect treated slice for an afternoon coffee or a spring brunch.
2 cups Fiber Gourmet Flour Blend
1 3/4 cups sugar (or granulated sugar-free substitute)
1 1/4 cups high-quality extra virgin olive oil
1 1/4 cups milk of choice
3 large eggs
Zest and juice of 1 large orange
Use quality olive oil: Since olive oil is the star flavor of this cake, use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil that tastes smooth and fruit-forward, not bitter.
Zest before juicing: Always grate the orange zest before cutting and juicing your orange to make the process much easier.
Do not overmix: Whisk the batter until the ingredients are just incorporated to ensure the crumb stays light, fluffy, and tender.
Let it cool completely: Olive oil cakes actually taste better and hold their structure much cleaner if you let them cool entirely before slicing.
Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9-inch round cake pan (or line it with parchment paper). In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, olive oil, milk, orange juice, and orange zest until smooth and emulsified.
Gently fold the Fiber Gourmet Flour Blend into the wet mixture using a spatula or whisk. Mix until the flour is just incorporated and no large streaks remain—be careful not to overmix.
Pour the smooth batter into your prepared pan. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the top is a beautiful golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before transferring it to a serving plate and slicing.
Fiber Gourmet Flour Blend is designed to help you enjoy your favorite baked goods while increasing fiber intake. It performs similarly to traditional all-purpose flour while providing more fiber, making it an easy swap for creating lighter desserts without sacrificing texture.
Take this sophisticated cake up a notch with these simple serving additions:
Absolutely! You can easily swap the orange juice and zest for fresh lemon juice and zest for a classic Lemon Olive Oil Cake. It works just as beautifully.
Yes, a 1:1 granulated sugar substitute like monk fruit or allulose works perfectly in this recipe. Because this cake uses a substantial amount of sweetener, ensure your chosen substitute performs well in high-volume baking.
Unlike butter, which solidifies at room temperature, olive oil remains a liquid. This keeps the cake incredibly moist, soft, and tender for days without it drying out.
Our versatile Flour Blend delivers the exact same weight, volume, and texture as traditional all-purpose flour, but packs a massive fiber boost with fewer calories. It's the easiest upgrade for your baking routine!
