Best 5 Olive Oil Cake With Strawberries And Fresh Rosemary Recipes

ROSEMARY OLIVE OIL CAKE WITH LEMON BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 300˚ F. Coat two 8-inch round cake pans with cooking spray. Combine the sugar, 2 1/3 cups flour, the baking powder, salt and 2 egg yolks in a large bowl; beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until well mixed. Stream in 1 cup olive oil and mix about 30 seconds. Beat in the 3 whole eggs, one at a time. Stream in the milk and vanilla and mix until combined.
• In a separate bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 3 teaspoons flour. Fold the rosemary mixture into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely in the pans.
• Make the lemon curd: In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup sugar, the egg yolk, lemon zest and juice, cornstarch and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir continuously with a rubber spatula until the mixture boils and thickens, about 1 minute. Transfer the lemon curd to a bowl and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate to cool.
• Make the buttercream: Set up a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. In a medium saucepan, heat the egg whites and remaining 1 cup sugar over medium heat until the mixture reaches 160˚ F and the sugar is dissolved. (You should not be able to feel any sugar granules and the mixture should be very warm, not hot, to the touch.)
• Pour the egg white mixture into the mixer bowl and whisk on medium-high speed until the meringue is three times its volume, holds firm peaks and has cooled to about 95˚ F, about 4 minutes. Beat in the remaining 4 sticks butter slowly, piece by piece, until smooth and blended. Beat in the salt and vanilla.
• Remove the lemon curd from the refrigerator and fold it into the buttercream until well combined.
• Assemble the cake: Transfer 1 cake layer to a cake plate. Spread some of the buttercream on top using an offset spatula. Top with the other cake layer. Cover the top and sides of the cake with a thin layer of buttercream (this is the crumb coat); refrigerate 15 to 20 minutes. Cover with the remaining buttercream.

OLIVE OIL CAKE WITH STRAWBERRIES AND FRESH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Two hours ahead or the day before serving, slice strawberries and sprinkle with 1/4 to 1/3 cup sugar or to taste. Mix well. If desired, mash 1/3 of the berries to create more juice. Store refrigerated in covered container. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put orange juice in small nonreactive pan; heat over medium-high heat and reduce mixture to 1/4 cup while preparing cake. Reducing juice to 1/4 cup intensifies the orange flavor. Do not be tempted to skip this step and add 1 cup orange juice to mixing batter. This is too much liquid. Rub about 1/2 teaspoon olive oil on bottom only of two 9-inch round pans. Cut parchment paper to fit. Place in pan to coat thoroughly. Turn over so that both sides are oiled. Sprinkle scant teaspoon of flour in each pan and shake to spread evenly. Whisk eggs with wire whisk until foamy. Add milk, scant 2 cups sugar, oil, zests and minced rosemary leaves. Continue whisking until well blended. Sprinkle with baking powder, baking soda and salt. Blend thoroughly. Add reduced orange juice and stir. Add flour a little at a time, whisking to blend evenly into a smooth batter. Batter will be very runny. Pour half of batter into each prepared pan. Bake 32-35 minutes or until a skewer or cake tester inserted into the center is clean and edges begin to pull slightly away from pan. Let cool 10 minutes. Run sharp knife around edge to loosen and invert pan onto a plate. Remove parchment paper. Brush generously with orange marmalade to moisten and create an attractive glaze. When cool, cut into serving portions and serve with sliced strawberries. If desired, add whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Garnish each plate with a sprig of fresh rosemary.
