  2. In a large bowl, whisk everything together.
  3. Pour the batter into a parched sheet pan.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes.
  5. Allow to cool before serving.

I make it without almonds and without a mold for simplicity. I then cut it into pieces and store what I’m not going to eat the same day in an airtight container in the freezer. It can also be made with a cylindrical mold or another shape. Usually, halfway through baking, it can be sprinkled with almonds and sugar on top as shown in the image.

This is a simpler variation I make of the following recipes:

Picture please!

derbis,

How much cake does this make? A whole cup of olive oil, wow

There are probably some variations that use egg but I’ve always done this one.

I’ve never heard of this. What is it like? It sounds delicious. Edit: Thanks for the pic!

jcarax,

Do you have a preference for type of olive oil, you use for it? There’s so much variance in olive oil flavor profiles, and I tend to like more peppery varieties. But I imagine that might not be the best here, though with the anise and cinnamon… maybe it would.
