Baking – Try our delicate Luminella as a substitute for butter or vegetable oil in any of your favourite baked goods. Excellent for olive oil cakes, shortbreads, and muffins, where a delicate flavour is preferred. Try it in citrus-based cakes or almond-based desserts.
Seafood – Because of the buttery flavour and richness of a delicate EVOO, Luminella works well with shellfish and fish as a finishing oil or for cooking.
As a butter swap – You can swap out the butter in your favourite recipes, just use 20% less olive oil instead of butter than what the recipe asks for.

Eggs & Breakfast Dishes – Use in place of butter for scrambled eggs, omelettes or poached eggs.
