Delicious Plum Cake With Yogurt Recipe
Ingredients
This delicious Plum Cake with Yogurt recipe is one of the best desserts you can make. It’s a simple and easy recipe that doesn't need too many ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup of vegetable oil
- ½ cup of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- ¾ cup of all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon of baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon of salt
- 2 cups of plain yogurt
- 2 cups of fresh or frozen plums, pitted and roughly chopped
Instructions
To make this delicious Plum Cake with Yogurt, first you need to preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C). Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) round cake pan with butter and line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, oil, sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
Add the yogurt and mix until well combined. Fold in the chopped plums, then pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Serve the cake with a dollop of Greek yogurt and a sprinkle of chopped plums on top, if desired.
