Ingredients: 3 tablespoons unsalted butter; ⅔ cup California extra-virgin olive oil; ½ cup all-purpose flour; ½ cup almond flour (or additional all-purpose); ⅓ cup raw cane sugar; 1 tablespoon white miso paste, at room temperature; 1 egg; 2 tablespoons whole milk or almond milk; zest of ½ lemon; ½ teaspoon vanilla extract; ⅛ teaspoon fine sea salt; ¼ teaspoon baking powder; Candied Citrus Peel: zest from ½ lemon, ½ lime, and ½ blood orange (removed in thin strips with a microplane); ⅓ cup raw cane sugar; ⅓ cup water; Topping: ⅓ cup crème fraîche, cold; ½ tablespoon powdered sugar; pinch of fine sea salt

A tender, olive oil–based cake is enriched with brown butter and a whisper of white miso, creating subtle umami and butterscotch depth. Topped with freshly whipped crème fraîche and a scatter of paper-thin candied citrus peel—lemon, lime, and blood orange—it tastes like elegant dessert that surprises the palate with its savory undertone.
