Nonstick olive oil spray
1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
4 large eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel
1/2 cup olive oil

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
