Olive Oil Cake Mix - Vanilla with a Hint of Lemon
Vanilla with a hint of Lemon Olive Oil Cake: The classic.
This simple, yet elegant olive oil cake is reminiscent of summers in the Mediterranean. Upon first bite, the essence of fruity olive oil and lemon awakens your senses while the real vanilla bean adds a warmth, allowing you to revel in a reflective pause while savoring each of the flavors.

PLANT-BASED SUBSTITUTIONS
HOW TO MAKE A FLAX EGG: Combine 1 TBS ground Flaxseed with 3 TBS of cool water. Stir and let sit for 5 minutes. Makes 1 egg. (Double this for our cake mixes to make 2 “eggs”)
HOW TO MAKE BUTTERMILK: For our cake mixes, we highly recommend buttermilk, but understand most do not stock this at home regularly. It is so easy to make your own starting with a whole milk base! Simply add 1 TBS of Vinegar (white or apple cider) or 1 TBS FRESH Lemon Juice to 1 cup of Whole Milk (or any non dairy alternative). Stir and let sit for 10 minutes and you have buttermilk.
I DO NOT HAVE BUTTERMILK OR MILKS - WHAT CAN I SUBSTITUTE?
Our olive oil cake mixes bake beautifully when the buttermilk/milk is substituted with yogurt or sour cream. They will bake slightly denser with this substitution but will still be incredibly moist and delicious.
