Honey, Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Lemon Cake - Zoe Bingley-Pullin

Spring on a plate. This zesty cake from Sydney nutritionist Zoe Bingley-Pullin is full of good fats and is made gluten-free quinoa flour.

The recipe can also be made into cupcakes if preferred and is delicious with a dollop of homemade vanilla bean yoghurt.
