Method

Preheat the oven to 150C and oil a 24cm loose bottomed cake tin

Whisk the eggs and sugar until light and creamy (about 4 minutes)

Slowly drizzle in the Great Ness Orange Zest Rapeseed Oil, continuing to whisk until all the oil is combined

Whisk in the lemon, orange zest and vanilla

In another bowl, stir together the polenta, ground almonds, baking powder and salt
