So super yummy!! Perfect lemony flavor and super moist π
Moist and fluffy with lots of lemon zing! My first attempt was an absolute failure with liquid batter running all over my oven! But I tried again and only used 1/2 cup olive oil and was careful to fold the dry ingredients in gently which made all the difference.
