A simple and delicious 3-ingredient yogurt cake that boasts a soft and creamy texture with a rich, tangy flavor and a subtle sweetness. Perfect for breakfast or dessert, this easy-to-make cake uses yogurt, eggs, and cornstarch to create a moist, low-calorie treat that can be customized with vanilla extract and various yogurt flavors.

Ingredients

Primary Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 4 eggs
  • 5 tablespoons cornstarch

Optional

  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1/4 cup sugar (optional, if using plain yogurt for added sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cake evenly.
  2. Combine Yogurt and Eggs: In a mixing bowl, add 1.5 cups of yogurt and 4 eggs. Whisk them thoroughly until well combined, creating a smooth mixture.
  3. Add Vanilla and Cornstarch: Stir in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract if using, then add 5 tablespoons of cornstarch. Whisk again until the batter is completely smooth with no lumps.
  4. Prepare Pan and Bake: Pour the batter into a lined loaf pan to prevent sticking. Place it in the oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the cake is fully baked.
  5. Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan. Once cooled, you can top it with fresh berries, maple syrup, or honey as desired. Slice and enjoy your moist, flavorful yogurt cake!

Notes

  • You can use vanilla or any flavored yogurt such as coconut to increase sweetness and flavor variety.
  • If using plain yogurt and you prefer a sweeter cake, add 1/4 cup of sugar to the batter.
  • Ensure the batter is whisked thoroughly to achieve a smooth texture without lumps.
  • Check doneness with a toothpick; baking times may vary slightly based on your oven.
  • This cake is naturally low-calorie and can be enjoyed as a healthy dessert or breakfast option.
