Chef's tip

🍓 For a creative touch, you can add fresh fruit like strawberries or raspberries to the batter before baking, or dust the cake with powdered sugar once it has cooled! ✨

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Yes

Works very well, baked, for up to 2-3 months tightly wrapped (plastic wrap, then foil).

Storage : How long does it keep?

Keeps 3 to 4 days max in an airtight container in the fridge.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Yes

Can be fully prepared the day before. Store airtight at room temperature or in the fridge.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Enjoy at room temperature or warm. To warm, a few seconds in the microwave or 5-10 min at 100°C in the oven.

Variations

Flavor with lemon zest or vanilla.
Add chocolate chips or fruit cut into small pieces.
Replace the plain yogurt with a flavored yogurt.

Mistakes to avoid

Forgetting to butter and flour the pan: the cake sticks and is hard to unmold.
Pouring in the oil all at once: add it little by little while stirring.
Unmolding right away: let it cool before unmolding.

Frequently asked questions

How do you measure the ingredients with a yogurt cup?

Empty the plain yogurt into the mixing bowl, then use the empty cup as the measure for the sugar, flour and oil. This method skips the scale and makes the recipe easy to remember.

How do you know when the yogurt cake is done?

After about 30 minutes at 180 °C, the cake is golden. Insert a knife in the center: it should come out clean. Then let it cool before unmolding.

How do you flavor a yogurt cake?

Add lemon zest or vanilla to flavor this neutral base. You can also customize it with chocolate chips or fruit, as you like.

In what order do you mix the yogurt cake ingredients?

First mix the yogurt, eggs and sugar until smooth, then add the flour and baking powder. Finally, stir in the oil little by little before pouring into the buttered and floured pan.
