St. Fanourios is the finder of miracles and lost things. The name Fanourios means to reveal or disclose. His feast day is August 27th. Once the item is found, you must bake a cake before August 27th the following year and bring it to the priest for a blessing. It should then be shared with others. Note: this vegan cake does not contain eggs or dairy.
In another mixing bowl, combine sugar, olive oil, orange juice, orange zest, vanilla extract, liqueur, and brandy (or substitutes) if using. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and sugar is dissolved.
Gradually stir wet ingredients into the dry until the mixture is well combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be very thick. Spread the batter into the prepared pan.
Set pan on middle rack and bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cake cool for at least 2 hours, then sprinkle with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Other add-ins can include: ½ cup golden raisins, 1 cup finely chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans).
