Step-by-Step Guide to Baking Creamy Yoghurt Cake
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper for easy removal.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agents and prevents lumps in the batter.
3. Mix the Wet Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yoghurt and sugar. Whisk until the sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes smooth.
- Add the vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest (if using). Whisk until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the batter looks creamy.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently with a spatula or whisk. Mix just until the flour is incorporated; overmixing can make the cake dense.
- The batter will have a thick yet pourable consistency.
5. Pour and Bake
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. Decorate and Serve
- Once the cake is fully cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar for a classic look.
- For added elegance, garnish with fresh berries or sliced fruit like strawberries, raspberries, or peaches.
