Ingredients
2-1/2 cups gf flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 stick of unsalted butter, at room temperature 1-1/2 cups sugar, divided Zest of 1 lemon 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 large egg 1/2 cup vegetable oil 3/4 cup milk 8 large egg yolks
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a tube pan generously with butter. Set aside.
Mix gf flour and salt. Set aside.
Using an electric mixer, beat butter on medium speed until smooth. Add 1/4 cup sugar, lemon zest and vanilla extract. Continue beating, on medium-high speed, for about 1 minute. Beat in 3/4 cup more sugar. Beat for 5 minutes. Scrape bowl and beaters. Add egg and 1/2 cup oil; beat for 1 minute. Pour 1/4 cup of milk into batter and beat on low speed just until incorporated. Add gf flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with remaining 1/2 cup milk, beginning and ending with flour and beating just until each addition is incorporated.
In a separate medium bowl, beat egg yolks on medium speed for 5 minutes or until thick and color is pale yellow. Beat in remaining 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating for 15 to 30 seconds after each addition. Increase speed to medium-high and beat for 3-4 minutes, until mixture is very thick and pale in color.
Add half the yolk mixture to batter and fold in gently with a wide rubber spatula. Do not overmix. Add remaining yolk mixture and fold in gently just until completely incorporated. Pour batter into prepared tube pan, smoothing top with a spatula.
Bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Place another wire rack on top of pan, inverting pan and rack together. Slowly lift off pan. Let cool completely.
Cut into thin slices with a serrated knife. Store, covered, at room temperature.
