- 5.30 ounces (or a little less than ¾ cup) feta cheese
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 1/4 Tbsp. honey
- 1/2 cup Gaea’s Kalamata D.O.P. Greek Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3.50 ounces (or a little less than ½ cup) ground almonds
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- Gaea Pitted Kalamata olives, cut in half
- Brown sugar for garnishing
Directions
Preheat oven to 350F. Process the cheese with the sugar and honey in a mixer until smooth. Add olive oil. Combine flour with the ground almonds and baking powder and add to bowl while mixing. Divide batter among 6 greased one-use individual cake molds and top each with half an olive. Sprinkle top of batter with brown sugar and bake for about 25 minutes.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
The P.D.O. region of Kalamata in the southwest Peloponnese, overlooking the Ionian Sea is a vast olive grove. The fresh, green handpicked Koroneiki olives used solely for the production of this “cold-pressed” superior category Extra Virgin Olive Oil, deliver an extremely well-balanced olive oil with a unique pepper and almond aftertaste. |
KALAMATA OLIVE HALVES Gaea Kalamata olive halves are derived from olives that mature and get their black color naturally on the tree. They are thus, not only the tastiest but also the healthiest option for your pizzas, salads, casseroles, sandwiches, pasta sauces, fish dishes or to create your own olive bruschetta.
