For an extra burst of flavor, brush the cooled cake with a simple orange syrup made from equal parts orange juice and sugar, heated until the sugar dissolves. The quality of your olive oil will impact the flavor of the cake, so choose one you enjoy. To prevent the cake from sticking, you can line the loaf pan with parchment paper before greasing and flouring it. This cake is delicious on its own, but it also pairs well with a dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of honey, or a side of fresh fruit.
