Ingredients
-
200 g fine sugar
-
200 g eggs (about 4)
-
Zest of 1 lemon, grated
-
300 g strawberries
-
200 g all-purpose flour
-
2 teaspoons baking powder
-
A pinch of salt
-
200 g Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-
Powdered sugar for dusting
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
In a bowl, combine the whole eggs, sugar, and lemon zest. Using a stand mixer or electric whisk, beat on high speed for about 5 minutes until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Sift the flour and baking powder, then gradually fold them into the mixture along with the olive oil, continuing to mix.
Wash and quarter the strawberries, removing the stems, and gently fold them into the batter.
Pour the batter into a 22 cm bundt pan, previously greased and floured.
Bake in static mode at 180°C for approximately 30–40 minutes. Check doneness with a skewer.
Once baked, let it cool for 5 minutes before inverting and removing from the pan. Dust with powdered sugar and serve.
