Fluffy Yogurt Cake with Mixed Berries

I can explain how to prepare a Fluffy Yogurt Cake with mixed berries, a soft and delicious cake that combines the freshness of yogurt with the sweet acidity of the berries. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients

  • 250 g Greek yogurt or full-fat plain yogurt
  • 3 eggs
  • 200 g granulated sugar
  • 1 packet of vanillin or one teaspoon of vanilla extract

  • A pinch of salt
  • 200 g mixed berries (fresh or frozen)

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C and grease and flour a springform cake pan about 22-24 cm in diameter.

  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until the mixture is light and frothy.

  3. Add the yogurt and continue mixing. Then incorporate the oil and vanillin (or vanilla extract), stirring well to combine the ingredients.

  4. Add the sifted flour with the baking powder and a pinch of salt, gently folding it into the mixture to avoid lumps.

  5. Gently fold the mixed berries into the batter, trying to distribute them evenly.

  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and level it with a spatula.

  7. Bake for about 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.

  8. Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  9. Before serving, you can dust the Fluffy Cake with powdered sugar for a sweet and refined finish.
