1/3 tsp kosher salt

Orange Zest Mix:

Zest of 1 1/3 oranges (zest 1 orange + 1/3 of another)
1 1/3 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp sugar

Directions

Preheat oven: 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9-inch cake pan (or similar size).
Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, olive oil, milk, and Greek yogurt until smooth.
Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Combine wet + dry: Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
Prepare cocoa mix: In a small bowl, stir together cocoa powder, sugar, and warm water until smooth. Fold into the batter.
Prepare orange zest mix: Mix orange zest, vanilla, and 2 tsp sugar. Gently fold into the batter.
Bake: Pour batter into the prepared pan. Bake 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Because this is a smaller batch, start checking around 30 minutes.
Cool: Let cake cool in pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
