Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, salt, and fresh lemon zest. This step ensures the zest is evenly distributed throughout the cake.
Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients To the same bowl, add olive oil, maple syrup, eggs, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix gently with a spatula or whisk until just combined — avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender.
Step 5: Cool & Glaze Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Once fully cooled, drizzle with the lemon icing for a bright, naturally sweet finish.
