Recipe: Lemon Olive Oil and Polenta Cake

Lemon Olive Oil and Polenta Cake
 
Ingredients 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour (organic if possible)
1/2 cup stone ground cornmeal (regular cornmeal will work here too)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup The Olive Oil Experience lemon olive oil
1 cup whole milk yogurt
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon Spice Galleria vanilla extract
1 teaspoon Spice Galleria sea salt

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Grease a 9"x9" baking pan with lemon olive oil.  In a large bowl combine the sugar, eggs, yogurt, vanilla, and lemon olive oil.  Whisk until pale and well combined.  Whisk the dry ingredients together and add to the wet ingredients.

Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 25-30 minutes in the center of the oven until golden brown, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool for 15 minutes in the pan, and invert on to a rack and cool fully before serving.

Serves 6-8
