Spray two 8" baking pans with cooking spray for baking.

In a large bowl, mix the eggs, olive oils, vanilla, Limoncello and the zests with a whisk until well combined.

Add the sugar, flour, salt and the Lievito degli Angeli and mix well.

Be sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl to better combine all the ingredients.
