Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl
  • 1 Hand mixer
  • 2 Small bowls
  • 1 Cake pan rectangular or round
  • 1 Grater
  • Measuring cups

Ingredients
  

  • 450 g Fruit e.g. cherries, berries
  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1 cup Yoghurt
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • ½ cup Oil I prefer avocado oil
  • 4 Eggs
  • ½ packet Backing powder around 6g
  • 1 Lemon zest
  • 1 tsp Vanilla
  • Powdered sugar optional

Instructions
 

  • Grate the lemon zest.
  • Grease a medium-sized baking pan with butter and lightly flour it.
  • In a large bowl, mix the yogurt with the eggs first, then add the sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest.
  • Gradually stir in the oil.
  • Combine the flour with the baking powder and slowly add it to the yogurt mixture.
  • Mix everything well until no dry flour remains.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
  • Toss the fruit in a little flour (this helps prevent it from sinking), then sprinkle it over the top of the batter.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes until golden brown. If it starts to brown too quickly, cover the top with baking paper.
  • Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.

Notes

You don’t even need a kitchen scale for this recipe—the cup is your measuring tool!
Tip for serving: Let the cake cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar, so it doesn’t melt into the surface.
Enjoy!
