Nonna's Rustic Italian Polenta (Cornmeal) Lemon EVOO Gluten Free Cake (e103)

Buon Giorno A Tutti! In this episode, Nonna Mia, la nonna di tutti (everyone's grandmother), shows us how to make her rustic polenta (cornmeal), and lemon cake. It's incredibly easy to whip up and makes for an excellent gluten-free option. In fact with the use of EVOO as opposed to butter and plant-based milk, it's a great option for people with sensitivities or dietary restrictions.
Dry Ingredients Bowl:
- 2 cups of almond flour
- 3/4 cup of cornmeal
- pinch of salt
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
Wet Ingredients Bowl:
- 1/3 cup of milk
- 1/3 cup of EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
- zest of 2 lemons
- juice of 2 lemons
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon of almond extract
Lemon Glaze:
- 1 cup of powdered / icing sugar
- 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
Mix wet ingredients and then pour into the dry ingredients bowl and stir until fully combined.
Prepare a 9" springform pan with spray and parchment paper. Pour in the batter and bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes.
Allow the cake to cool in its pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from the pan. Cool further on a rack. Once cool, add (optional) the lemon glaze. Poke holes into the cake if you would like the glaze to seep in. Decorate as desired and enjoy!
Buon appetito!

BELISSIMA NONNA! These are my Nonnos two favorite foods in ONE CAKE. His birthday is coming up and I'll have to make it for him. Una abraccio forte, saluti Nonna!

[@nonnamia7890]

That makes me so happy. 🤗💛🤗

nonna mia, you won't believe it, but I just made cornbread in a cast iron skillet and thought I would try a piece while catching up on youtube video's. wish I had seen your video earlier, that looks so good. Just like you I just love lemons. I have those same crystal glasses that you saluted with, my grandmother gave them to me 48 years ago. We are having a beautiful sunny day here and the grass has turned green and the flowers are just starting to push up. I am about 7 hours north of you. Have a great day, much love

[@nonnamia7890]

I’m sorry bella for not writing sooner. What a coincidence that you and I both made cornbread and have the same glasses. Sending you a big big hug bella. 🤗🤗
