Preparation
Step 1
1 Heat the oven to 350. Lightly oil a 9-inch round cake pan with tall sides; dust it with 3 tablespoons breadcrumbs.
2 Using a rasp grater, zest both grapefruits. Juice one of the grapefruits to yield 3/4 cup juice. In a small bowl, combine the zest, juice and olive oil. Set aside.
3 Beat the eggs and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until frothy and light. Slowly beat in the sugar and honey; continue to mix until pale and thick, about 2 minutes more.
4 Sift together the flour, the remaining 1/4 cup breadcrumbs and the baking powder in a separate bowl. Gradually beat the dry ingredients into the egg mixture. Fold in the citrus zest mixture until incorporated.
5 Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, 50 minutes. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack, 10 minutes. Then remove it from the pan; let it cool to room temperature.
