🛒 Ingredients
🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    In a bowl, pour the plain yogurt. Add the sugar and vanilla then whisk vigorously until you get a creamy and homogeneous mixture.

  2. 2

    Add the eggs one by one, whisking well between each addition to obtain a smooth and airy texture.

  3. 3

    Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt over the bowl. Incorporate gently while whisking to avoid lumps.

  4. 4

    Pour the oil in a thin stream while mixing continuously until you get a smooth and shiny batter.

  5. 5

    Butter and flour a 22-24 cm cake pan. Pour the batter and bake for 30-35 minutes at 180°C until the cake is golden.

  6. 6

    Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center - it should come out clean. Let cool before unmolding.

Tips & Tricks
  • Use the same yogurt pot for all ingredients
  • Don't skip sifting for a well-aerated cake
  • Replace ½ pot of oil with ½ pot of cream for more moistness
  • Add lemon zest or 100g of chocolate chips to vary
  • Enjoy plain or dusted with powdered sugar, with compote or custard
