Rustic Piedmont Olive Oil Cake

Method

1. Start by prepping your all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, eggs so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the leeks and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the olive oil cake, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Fold in the granulated sugar and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Off the heat, brighten it up with toasted nuts and a final crack of pepper.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
