Almond Raisins and Olive Oil Cake

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour

1 cup sugar

2 tsp baking pdr

1/2 tsp salt

3 large eggs

3/4 cup Extra Virgin Olive a Oil

1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

1/2 cup sliced almonds

1/3 cup raisins.

1 tbsp Orange Juice freshly squeezed.

1/2 tsp orange zest

Powdered sugar for dusting on top.

Preheat your oven to 350 deg F.

Spray an 8 inch round cake pan, or as I did use an oval pan the same size.

In a mixing bowl sift together the flour, baking pdr and salt.

Take your stand mixer bowl or another mixing bowl and whisk together the sugar, eggs, zest until the mixture gets nice, fluffy and pale yellow.

Follow with slowly adding the olive oil whilst still whisking.

Fold this egg mixture into the flour mixture carefully with a spatula, putting away the whisk.

Then add the raisins, chocolate and the almonds.

Mix the batter well until combine.

Pour carefully into the prepped cake pan.

Spread it with your spatula.

Tap sides carefully to ensure the batter settles well.

Bake this for 35 minutes. Check if it's ready by inserting a toothpick in the center.

If it doesn't come out clean bake for another 5 mins.

Then remove from oven and cool it for 25 mins before sprinkling with powdered sugar on top.

Serve sliced into wedges with tea or as a dessert.
