With only four ingredients, this cake is as simple as it gets while still delivering an irresistible fluffy texture and a mild, tangy flavor from the yogurt. Whether you're a beginner in the kitchen or a seasoned baker, this cake is a great choice for any occasion. Let's dive into how you can create this dreamy dessert in no time.
Ingredients:
1 cup of plain yogurt (Greek or regular)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
1/4 cup of sugar
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
Separate the eggs. Place the egg whites in a large bowl and the yolks in a separate small bowl.
Whisk the egg whites. Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This step is key to achieving the cake's airy texture.
Prepare the batter. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks with sugar until smooth. Then, add the yogurt and mix well. Gently fold in the flour until combined.
Combine the mixtures. Carefully fold the egg whites into the yogurt mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the fluffy texture.
Bake. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool. Let the cake cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Slice the Yogurt Cloud Cake and serve on its own, or with fresh fruit and a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch. It’s perfect for tea time or as a light dessert after a meal.
Storage: Store any leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2-3 days. You can also refrigerate it for longer freshness. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
