LEMON OLIVE OIL CAKE

So, as I am still unemployed, mostly, I try to compensate by using my free time to try out recipes. Here is the latest. And greatest. The recipe is from
epicurious but I tweaked it. The recipe says bake for 45 min at 350, this cake you see here was done after about 20 minutes. Also the instructions seem over complicated, I basically just followed the wet/dry method for most cakes and it came out just fine. Better than fine. It's one of those "this cake is so good it needs no accompaniment" cakes. Maybe if I wanted it for a fancy occasion, I'd try a pistachio glaze or maybe some whipped cream with pistachio garnish. The olive oil is barely recognizable except for the incredibly
velvety texture it leaves. I would definitely try a fruity one next time just to see how it differs.
