This mega-moist olive oil cake from Ochre Bakery in Detroit (No. 4 on our 2019 Hot Ten list!) is bright and lemony, buttery and nutty. Don’t even think about lifting it out of the pan before it’s completely—and we mean completely—cool. Because it’s vegan, with no eggs for structure, its delicate crumb needs time to rest and firm up.
