French Yogurt Cake
This super easy, no-measure French yogurt cake is made with Greek yogurt, olive oil and naturally sweetened with maple syrup. It takes just minutes to prep, has a moist, tender crumb and is the perfect recipe for kids to help with!
Ingredients
- 1 .3oz container (150g) Greek yogurt save your container so you can use it to measure the other ingredients, plain, whole milk
- 1 .3oz container (150g) neutral oil like avocado oil or olive oil or applesauce
- 1 .3oz container (150g) maple syrup
- 3 egg large
- 1 plash vanilla extract
- 3 .3oz containers (2 cups) all-purpose flour or whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl combine yogurt, oil, maple syrup, eggs and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Rinse and dry your yogurt cup so you can measure your flour without it sticking.
- Add flour, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, making sure not to over mix.
- Pour batter into the loaf pan. Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the loaf cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan, then remove and let cool completely on a cooling rack.
- Once cool, slice and enjoy!
Notes
- Don't have a small yogurt container? 5.3oz equals 2/3 cup so if you want to measure your ingredients you can use 2/3 cup yogurt, 2/3 cup oil, 2/3 cup maple syrup and 2 cups flour.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
