Ingredients:

  • 500 grams of Greek yogurt or any creamy yogurt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Begin by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures the oven reaches the right temperature by the time you’re ready to bake your cake.
  2. Prepare the Cake Pan:
    • Lightly grease a 9-inch (23 cm) cake pan with a bit of butter or non-stick spray. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal after baking.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and sugar. Stir them together until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Crack the eggs into the bowl, one at a time, whisking well after each addition to incorporate them fully into the yogurt mixture.
  4. Add the Cornstarch:
    • Sift the cornstarch into your wet ingredients. This helps avoid lumps in your batter. Gently fold the cornstarch into the mixture until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Bake the Cake:
    • Pour the batter into your prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cake is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and Serve:
    • Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely. The cake is delicious on its own, but feel free to dust it with powdered sugar or serve it with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries for an extra special touch.

This Yogurt Cake recipe is a testament to the beauty of simplicity in baking. The result is a moist, tender cake with a delightful tang from the yogurt, perfect for pairing with your morning coffee or as a light dessert. Enjoy the process and the delicious outcome!
