Easy yogurt cake
Prep 10 min Cook 40 min Serves 10 Source

Ingredients

  • 1 cup any flavour yogurt** (I find flavoured regular natural yogurt to be the best / room temperature )
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1½ cups all purpose flour or cake flour
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 2-3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ½ tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ½ tablespoon lemon juice

Steps

  1. 1

    Pre-heat the oven to 350F degrees (180 cm). Grease an 8 inch (20cm) cake pan or a 9½-10 inch (24 cm) bundt pan.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, using a hand mixer on medium speed, lightly beat the eggs approximately 30 seconds, add oil, sugar and yogurt, beat for 1 minute until smooth, add flour and baking powder and beat until well combined approximately another minute.

  3. 3

    Pour into the prepared cake pan and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes or until tested done (when a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out dry or with a few crumbs attached). Let cool 15-20 in the pan then move to a wire rack to cool completely. When cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.

  4. 4

    In a medium pot mix together berries, sugar, cornstarch, water and lemon juice, bring to a boil then lower heat and simmer until desired thickness. Pour into a bowl, let cool completely and or refrigerate.
