Super drėgnas citrinų ir alyvuogių aliejaus keksas 

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 150 g brown or coconut sugar
  • 190 ml mild olive oil
  • 220 g Greek yogurt
  • Zest of 3 lemons + 60 ml lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 240 g flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¾ tsp salt

Cooking instructions

  1. Beat the eggs with both sugars for 2 minutes, until pale and fluffy.
  2. Mix in the olive oil, yogurt, lemon zest and juice, and vanilla.
  3. Add the dry ingredients and mix briefly, just until combined.
  4. Bake at 165°C for 45–50 minutes.
  5. Let it cool in the pan — this is what helps keep it moist.
  6. Spread with Greek yogurt and decorate with berries.

While we were in Greece, our son turned 8 months old, so we celebrated the occasion with a little dessert 🫐
