The mixture won't thicken a lot, but will become lighter in colour and be foamy, with lots of small bubbles).
• With mixer on low, slowly add the oil and mix in until combined. With mixer still on low, spoon in the flour mixture until combined, then beat the mixture at medium speed for about 30 seconds.

Look at the very outside edges, which should be golden and pulling away from the side of the pan, then test with a skewer.
• Remove from oven and let cool in pan for about 10 minutes. Run a knife around the outside of the cake, then gently push up from the bottom, removing the cake from the sides, but still sitting on the base. Allow to cool a bit more, then carefully run a knife around the centre tube. Gently lift the cake off the base/tube and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.
