Olive Oil Orange Cornmeal Cake

• 1 1/3 cups white sugar, divided
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup finely ground yellow cornmeal
• zest from 1 orange
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Grease the bottom and sides of an 8-inch round cake pan; line with waxed paper or parchment paper. Grease top of paper.
3. Beat 1 cup sugar, eggs, olive oil, and orange juice together in a large bowl until smooth; add flour, cornmeal, orange zest, baking powder, and salt. Use a whisk to lightly mix the wet and dry ingredients together. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Sprinkle remaining sugar over the top of the batter.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 35 minutes. Cool cake in the pan for 20 minutes.
