Passion fruit yogurt cake with white chocolate drizzle
The Passion Fruit Yogurt Cake is a moist loaf cake made with Greek yogurt and passion fruit pulp, offering a tangy and tender crumb. The cake batter is combined with flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, eggs, oil, and passion fruit, then baked until golden and set. It is finished with a white chocolate drizzle mixed with passion fruit and warm water, adding a sweet and creamy contrast to the tart fruit flavor.
Ingredients
- 250 g (2 cups) flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2.5 ml salt
- 250 ml (1 cup) Greek yoghurt
- 200 g (¾ cup) caster sugar
- 3 egg extra-large
- 125 ml (½ cup) canola oil
- 1/2 cup passion fruit pulp I pushed the seeds and pulp of 6 passion fruit through a sieve then added back 2 teaspoons of seeds but this is optional
- white chocolate drizzle
- 200 g (7oz) white chocolate chopped
- passion fruit can be strained to remove seeds, pulp and seeds of 3 passion fruit
- 1 tablespoon water warm
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F and grease and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Sift together the cake flour, baking powder and salt and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix well.
- Pour the yogurt mixture into the dry ingredients and mix to combine.
- Pour the batter into the loaf tin and bake for 45 minutes to an hour until a skewer inserted comes out clean. If you find the cake is darkening too much for your liking, simply cover it with a piece of foil half way through baking.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before removing the cakes from the tin.
- To make the white chocolate drizzle, heat the chocolate, passion fruit and one tablespoon of water in a bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Allow the white chocolate to melt and stir together. If you find the drizzle is too thick, simply add another tablespoon of water and mi well.
- Drizzle the white chocolate mixture over the cake and allow to set slightly before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Store the cake in a sealed container to maintain freshness for up to 10 days.
- Make sure the cake is fully cooled before drizzling the white chocolate passion fruit mixture.
- If the drizzle is too thick, add warm water in small amounts to thin it.
