I make it without almonds and without a mold for simplicity. I then cut it into pieces and store what I’m not going to eat the same day in an airtight container in the freezer. It can also be made with a round mold. Usually, halfway through baking, it’s sprinkled with almonds and sugar.

This is a simpler variation I make of the following recipes:

    Do you have a preference for type of olive oil, you use for it? There’s so much variance in olive oil flavor profiles, and I tend to like more peppery varieties. But I imagine that might not be the best here, though with the anise and cinnamon… maybe it would.

      There are probably some variations that use egg but I’ve always done this one.
