Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Get Ready to Bake
-
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F)
-
Grease and flour a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal
2. Whip the Wet Ingredients
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until pale, thick, and foamy
-
Add in the Greek yogurt and stir gently until well incorporated
3. Combine the Dry Ingredients
-
Sift the flour and baking powder together to prevent clumps
-
Gradually fold the dry mix into the wet, working in small additions
-
Use a spatula to mix gently—don’t overbeat, or the cake may turn dense
4. Bake to Perfection
-
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and smooth the top
-
Bake for about 30 minutes, or until a knife or toothpick inserted comes out clean
-
Let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely
Tips & Variations:
-
Want a lemony twist? Add a bit of grated lemon zest to the batter
-
For extra richness, drizzle with honey or dust with powdered sugar before serving
-
This cake pairs wonderfully with fresh fruit or a spoonful of jam
A simple, no-fuss treat that tastes like it took much more effort. Let me know if you'd like a chocolate version or one with olive oil added!
