Here is the recipe for Dessi’s gluten free Italian lemon olive oil cake:
Dry Ingredients:
1 3/4 cups almond flour
1/2 cup tapioca starch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Pinch salt
Wet ingredients:
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil
4 eggs, room temperature
1/2 cup maple or coconut sugar
Zest of 2 lemons
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Preheat oven to 350F
In a large bowl, add all the dry ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
Warm the olive and coconut oil in a small pot to about 100F. Meanwhile, crack the eggs in a large bowl, add the sugar, zest, vanilla, and beat for 3 minutes until the texture is very light and fluffy. add the lemon juice and mix.
Add half a cup of the dry mixture to the wet ingredients along with a couple tablespoons of oil and mix well. Once incorporated, add another 1/2 of flour and 2 tablespoons of oil. Continue until all of the oil and flour are incorporated.
Pour batter into a 9 inch springform pan with payment paper on the bottom. Bake for 30 minutes, or until cake is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for 20 minutes then enjoy!

Dear lady bobby parish. Tapioca isn't safe to use. almond flour is a good idea.
wow. Rose grew up so fast. already making lemon cakes on her own 😅
Rose looks like Leilani. Bobby looks to be a full C cup.
Can I use melted butter to offset ev olive oil instead of coconut?
I was checking out your website. Do you ensure that everything you sell has no levels of heavy metals?
What a delicious cake. Beautiful family. 🥰🥰🥰
Soooo trying this ! THANKS Y'ALL CAN'T WAIT ❤
Thank you so much! Lemon olive oil cake is my favorite and now I have a gluten-free recipe I can enjoy!
I have read in several dfferent sources to "NEVER" USE BAKING POWDER / SODA WITH ALMOND FLOUR. Blue Diamond Almond Co. being one of the sources. Two links below….
Does baking powder work with almond flour?
1.) Use Eggs as The Leavening Agent. Since baking powder contains baking soda, baking powder cannot be used in almond flour baking. Instead, eggs (or applesauce or bananas) can be used as the leavening agent to help baked goods rise and achieve a light and fluffy texture. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=can+you+use+baking+posder+with+almond+flour+recipe
