Easy Yogurt Cake
309
Diana Moutsopoulos
"This is an easy yogurt cake that uses the yogurt container to measure all of the ingredients. It's ready in under an hour and the perfect not-too-sweet snack or breakfast treat. It's known in France as "Gâteau au Yaourt" and is typically the first cake that French children learn how to make. My son attends a French school and has made this with his classmates."

Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch round springform cake pan.
- Empty the yogurt into a mixing bowl. Measure the oil, using the yogurt container, and add to the yogurt. Set aside. Rinse yogurt container and dry with paper towel to continue using it as a measuring tool.
- Add eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract to the yogurt-oil mixture. Beat well until thoroughly combined. Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined; batter will be thick. Pour into the prepared cake pan and spread to level the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.

Footnotes
- Cook's Notes:
- A 5 oz yogurt container is equivalent to 3/4 cup. If you would like to make this cake but do not have a 5 oz container, use the following measurements: 3/4 cup plain yogurt; 1 1/2 cups white sugar; 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon oil; 1 1/3 cups flour.
- Try adding your favorite flavors or additions. A great one is 1/2 yogurt container mini chocolate chips! You could use lemon yogurt and add lemon zest for a lemon yogurt cake. The possibilities are endless! If you use a flavored and sweetened yogurt instead of plain, consider reducing the added sugar to 1 yogurt container.

Favor was ok. I wouldn’t make it again because it was very bland. You definitely need something else to spice it up.

This was awesome and easy. We used lemon and cream yogurt as suggested and then added 3/4 C blueberries so it was like a lemon blueberry cake. I thought it was amazing.

I used 5% Fage Greek Yoghurt, Extra Virgin Olive Oil (I had nothing else) and semi-sweet chocolate chips added to the batter. Excellent!!!
