Lemon White Wine Cake

Lemon White Wine Cake

Infused with the bright essence of freshly squeezed lemons and the refined subtlety of white wine, this cake embodies pure sophistication. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio)
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add the olive oil, white wine, lemon zest, and lemon juice to the egg mixture, mixing until well combined.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar. Slice and serve.
