I couldn't help but combine the most healing yet underrated threesome ingredients known today! Healing and soothing honey, lemon and olive oil. This cake is filled with antioxidants, and it's also light, delicious and extremely tasty. Sweet and sour, with a nice smooth texture from the olive oil.

A big tip on picking the best olive oil is to ensure you get a great variety. One that isn't too peppery, nor one that's flat and light in colour. If possible, you need a great European olive oil that's cold-pressed and organic. I promise you won't taste the olive oil, but it does make this cake taste more delicious.

You can make the icing on this one, but I preferred a light touch of icing sugar and some unsweetened coconut yogurt. The honey within the cake makes it sweet enough.

Please give this a try and let me know what you think.
