Tre Tre Tre Cake

TRE TRE TRE

makes about 8 portions

1 ½ cup superfine sugar
3 eggs
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon orange zest
¾ cup whole milk
¾ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 ½ cups soft wheat flour (White Lily or cake flour)
2 ½    teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Oil and flour a 10 " springform pan. I like to clamp a large piece of parchment paper over the bottom piece to make removing the cake easier.

Beat the eggs, sugar and zest for at least 5 minutes with a mixer until pale yellow and thick. Mix in the milk and oil. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt together to blend and fold into the liquid until thoroughly combined.

Pour batter into the springform pan and bake for 35-45 minutes or until brown and a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven, cool for 10 minutes, run a knife around the edge of the pan and remove the ring of the springform. Cool completely and serve.
