Lemon Olive Oil Recipe By Tasty Food

LEMON OLIVE OIL CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F (180C) degrees.
• Grease and flour the bottom and sides of a 9-inch round (23 cm) cake pan. Ensure the cake has sides that are at least 2 inches (5 cm) high. I typically use a springform pan.*
• In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a separate large bowl beat the eggs, sugar and lemon zest for about 5 minutes. It should look white in color and be about triple in volume when you're done.
• With the mixer on low speed beat in the oil, vanilla extract and lemon juice.
• Mix in about 1/2 of the flour mixture, followed by about 1/2 of the milk. Repeat the process until everything is mixed in.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven on the middle rack for 45-50 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
• Gently trace around the edges of the cake with a thin, sharp knife. Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 20 minutes. If using a regular cake tin, gently invert the pan and let the cake cool on a wire rack. If using a springform pan, unclamp the outer ring of the pan.
• When the cake is fully cooled, optionally sift 1/2 teaspoon of powdered sugar on top of the cake and/or top with whipped cream and berries.

LEMON OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Place the oil and the zest in a glass jar. Let it stand at room temperature for at least 2 weeks, shaking occasionally.
• Pour the oil through a strainer and discard the zest. Transfer to a jar and store, tightly covered, in refrigerator. Enjoy!
• Yield: 1 cup.

LEMON-INFUSED OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Store the oil in the refrigerator. Use in your favorite recipes and enjoy.

LEMON-INFUSED OLIVE OIL

Steps:

• Wash one lemon by rinsing it well. Pat it dry.
• Use a vegetable peeler to peel the yellow part of the skin off the one lemon. (Do not use any of the white part, because it will be bitter.) Place the lemon peels in a small saucepan.
• Squeeze 1 1/2 or two lemons until you have 1/2 cup of lemon juice. Add the juice to the saucepan, then add the oil.
• Add a pinch of salt to the pan and stir. Heat the pan over high heat, just until the oil starts to bubble at the edges. (Do not boil.) Then put the heat on low and let the lemon oil steep for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Move the pan off the heat and let the lemon-infused oil cool for an hour at room temperature.
• Use a fine-mesh strainer to strain the oil into a plastic container or into a funnel placed in a glass bottle. Store the lemon-infused olive oil in a sealed bottle or container in the refrigerator for a few weeks. The oil will solidify on top, while the lemon juice remains on the bottom, so you'll need to run the bottle or container under very warm water, then shake before using.

STRAWBERRY LEMONADE OLIVE OIL CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the candied lemon: Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Thinly slice the lemon into rounds, about ⅛-¼-inch-thick, removing the seeds.
• In a medium shallow skillet, combine the water and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves, 3-4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the lemon slices to the syrup, and simmer until the flesh of the lemons begins to turn translucent, about 15 minutes.
• Transfer the lemon slices to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
• Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 18 muffin tin cups with paper liners.
• Make the cupcakes: In a large bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.
• In a medium bowl, combine the butter, strawberry purée, and olive oil. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until lightened in color and fluffy.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on medium-low speed until just combined.
• In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, milk, and red food coloring.
• Add the egg white mixture to the batter and mix on medium-low speed until smooth.
• Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way.
• Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
• Make the lemon buttercream: In a large bowl, combine the butter, cream cheese, salt, vanilla, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. Mix with an electric hand mixer on low speed until smooth. Transfer to a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off or a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
• Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcakes. Garnish with the candied lemon wheels and sliced strawberries.

LEMON OLIVE OIL CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350*F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray. Line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper and grease with the non-stick spray.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a wire whisk attachment, whip the egg yolks with 1/2 cup of the sugar until pale and thick.
• Combine the olive oil and lemon juice and with the mixer running on low, slowly add it to the yolk mixture. It may look slightly curdled. Add the flour and lemon zest and gently fold into the yolk-olive oil mixture with a spatula.
• Transfer mixture to a separate bowl and set aside. Clean the stand mixer bowl and whisk attachment.
• In the bowl of the stand mixer fitted with the wire whisk attachment, whip the egg whites until foamy, then slowly add 1/4 cup of the sugar and continue to beat to soft peaks.
• Gently fold into the olive oil mixture, just barely until incorporated. Do not overmix.
• Spread into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar.
