Simple Yogurt Cake - Easy Baking

Step 1: Combine Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, add 2 eggs, a pinch of salt, 150 g of sugar, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla flavor.

Step 2: Whisk Initial Mixture

Whisk the ingredients together thoroughly until the mixture is well combined and slightly pale.

Step 3: Add Oil

Pour in 100 ml of oil and continue whisking until it is fully incorporated into the mixture.

Step 4: Incorporate Yogurt

Add 150 g of plain yogurt to the bowl and whisk until the batter is smooth and uniform.

Step 5: Add Dry Ingredients

Sift 220 g of plain flour and 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder directly into the wet mixture.

Step 6: Mix Batter

Gently whisk the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined and smooth. Be careful not to overmix to ensure a tender cake.

Step 7: Prepare for Baking

Pour the prepared cake batter into a 20 cm springform pan that has been lined with parchment paper.

Step 8: Bake the Cake

Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 180°C (≈355°F) (approximately 355°F) (350°F (≈175°C) (approximately 175°C)) for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9: Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan before removing and serving.

• Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.

• Do not overmix the batter after adding flour to keep the cake tender.

• Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.

• Add lemon zest for a citrusy flavor.

• Incorporate berries or chocolate chips into the batter.

• Top with a simple glaze or powdered sugar once cooled.
