Small Batch Olive Oil Cakes and more! Have you had olive oil cake before? It’s so lovely, delicate and beautiful in flavor. I’m teaching a baking class with The Bake Feed and Williams Sonoma on Monday, June 14th at 5pm PST/7pm CST/8pm EST! I hope you can join us!

Nothing brings me more joy than baking in a quiet kitchen. Just me and some classical music with the windows open so I can hear birds chirping. This is my happy place. These days, quiet moments are harder to find but when I do, beautiful things like this olive oil cake happens.

Small Batch Olive Oil Cakes

These mini cakes are the cutest and the perfect size! I love the Williams Sonoma Goldtouch Pro Nonstick 6″ Round Cake Pans. It features their Goldtouch® Pro nonstick coating – Williams Sonoma’s most advanced nonstick finish – for easy release and quick cleanup.

I love topping these cakes with fresh whipped cream and fresh peach slices. You could also add fresh berries on top. I have also added strawberries and balsamic glaze! So good!

Baking Class with The Bake Feed
