Easy Olive Oil Cake
A Quick and Easy Cake that is Forgiving
It’s Sunday — Are you looking for a quick and easy dessert that will surely brighten your day? Do you like moist easy to bake cakes? The good news is you probably already have all the ingredients sitting in your cupboards. One of the things I love most about this cake is it is extremely forgiving and adaptable. I have swapped out peaches for blueberries, yogurt for milk, added this, removed that — and it still comes out perfectly moist.
