Lemon Glazed Olive Oil Cake

All it takes to make the most amazing and fluffy Lemon Glazed Olive Oil Cake is a box mix, a few egg whites, and some olive oil.

Lemon Glazed Olive Oil Cake

You are probably looking at the slice of this fluffy mouthwatering cake and are thinking you read the title wrong – Lemon Glazed Olive Oil Cake. But you didn’t read it wrong – it says olive oil cake. I know, I was skeptical too – a cake made with olive oil? How can that be any good at all?

Lemon Glazed Olive Oil Cake

I’ve seen chefs and bakers on TV and in magazines rave about olive oil cake and it’s been on my to-do list for a long time. So I decided to get it off my list and onto a plate. My problem is that I love cake but I really like to use a boxed mix as the base – so that’s what I did.

A few simple ingredients and I was ready to bake my cake. I used:

  1. White cake mix
  2. 3 eggs whites
  3. 1 cup of water
  4. 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil

That’s it, 4 simple ingredients – three if you don’t count water as an ingredient 🙂

Here’s a list of equipment you will need for this recipe:

  2. Measuring cup
  3. Cake pan – I used a springform cake pan
  4. Small dish to make the glaze
  5. Whisk (or a fork) to make the glaze
