Ingredients:

250g plain white flour
4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (or 50g lard)
One glass milk
One orange
Half a teaspoon powdered saffron
90g sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons baking powder
Icing sugar
Salt

Methods:

Put the sifted flour, baking powder, oil, milk, grated orange rind, saffron, sugar, eggs, and a pinch of salt into a mixing bowl and beat together thoroughly until all the lumps are eliminated and the batter is smooth and thick. Grease a shallow rectangular baking pan and pour in the mixture (the schiacciata should be about 2 cm high). Put into a preheated oven at 150°c for half an hour. Sprinkle plenty of icing sugar on top of the cake before sprinkling with icing sugar to make design.
