Critical Success Points

• • Generously butter and flour the bundt pan to prevent sticking.
• • Beat eggs and sugar until pale and voluminous for a light cake.
• • Slowly stream in olive oil to maintain emulsion.
• • Alternate dry and wet ingredients, finishing with dry, and avoid overmixing.
• • Get the batter into the oven quickly after mixing.
• • Glaze the cake while it is still hot for maximum absorption.
• • Unmold the cake carefully while still warm but not hot.

Safety Warnings

• • Bundt pan and cake will be very hot after baking—use oven mitts or towels to avoid burns.
• • Take care when unmolding to avoid steam burns.
• • Use caution with sharp tools (microplane, knives, skewers).
