Mum's yogurt cake
Apr. 3rd, 2020 10:51 pmIngredients
3 eggs
125ml yoghurt
125ml oil
80grams sugar (actually the main recipe calls for twice that, but mum likes it less sweet)
375ml flour (it's not in grams because we usually measure it with the yogurt cups)
one teaspoon of baking powder (you have to experiment, I was using single portion, 16grams, bags of yeast for baking cakes/sweets, this one, that doesn't seem to exist here in the UK)
a pinch of salt
a little butter for the tin
How to
Whip together the sugar and eggs and a pinch of salt.
Add the yogurt and mix.
Fill the yogurt cup with oil and add it to the mixture.
Then add the two cups of flour one at a time, then the yeast/baking powder.
Butter the cake tin, then lightly cover in flour.
Add the mixture to the tin.
Cook in the oven at 180° for 20 to 30 minutes.
You can also put only half the mixture in the cake tin, then add cocoa powder to the rest, mix it well, and then add it afterwards for a cake with chocolate patches.
You can also use flavoured yogurts, and the cake has slightly different flavours (my favourite is either vanilla or plain unsweetened, but I've used strawberry yogurt and it still works).
