Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a 23cm (9-inch) round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cinnamon, ground cloves, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, orange juice, olive oil, water, and vanilla extract until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is smooth.
Step 4
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Fold in the raisins and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once the cake has cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar if desired before serving. Slice and enjoy!
