4 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons orange juice
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
Grated zest of 1 orange

Pour mixture into prepared pan. Place on cookie sheet and bake until top is golden brown and tester comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Place on a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes.

Remove cake from pan, discard wax paper, and place on serving plate. Heat apricot preserves over low heat until melted, then pour over cake.
