Easy and Delicious Yogurt Cake Recipe
This Greek Yogurt Cake is the perfect example of a simple, wholesome dessert made with just a few ingredients—eggs, flour, and yogurt. It’s fluffy, light, and ideal for a quick breakfast or an afternoon treat. Customize it with chocolate flakes or raisins for added flavor!
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 150g plain Greek yogurt
- 150g all-purpose flour
- 100g granulated sugar
- 1 sachet baking powder (approx. 11g)
- Chocolate flakes or raisins (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Beat the Eggs and Sugar:
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and slightly pale.
3. Add Greek Yogurt:
Stir in the Greek yogurt and mix until well incorporated.
4. Add Dry Ingredients:
Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl. Mix gently with a spatula or whisk until you get a smooth, lump-free batter.
5. Add Optional Garnish:
Fold in chocolate flakes or raisins if using.
6. Bake:
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Smooth the surface with a spatula. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool and Serve:
Let the cake cool completely before removing it from the pan. Slice and enjoy with coffee or tea.
Tips
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for the best texture and moisture.
- Don’t overmix the batter after adding flour to keep the cake light.
- Customize: Add lemon zest, vanilla extract, or cinnamon for a flavor twist.
