For those who would like to bake the Fanouropita, this is my mother’s recipe. She always used to make it for us. It’s one of my favorite cake/bread.

Fanouropita

1/2 cup oil
1 cup sugar
1 cup orange juice
2 teaspoons cinnamon (ground)
1/4 teaspoon cloves (ground)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup walnuts (ground)
1/2 cup raisins

*Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly grease and flour a 9-inch round or square cake pan, or line the bottom with lightly greased parchment paper.
*In a large bowl, whisk together the oil and the sugar until well combined.
*Add the orange juice, cinnamon, cloves, and baking powder and mix well.
*Using a spatula, incorporate the flour in batches into the batter, continually scraping the sides of the bowl, and mix until just combined.
*Stir in the ground walnuts and raisins.
*Transfer the batter to the cake pan, pressing it out to the edges and smoothing the top with the spatula.
*Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until the cake turns golden and a toothpick inserted at a few different points comes out clean.
