Lemon Raspberry Yogurt Cake Fresh and Fluffy Delight
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 lemon zest
- 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- to taste powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, granulated sugar, and eggs until smooth and well combined.
- Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vegetable oil until the mixture is fully blended.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender cake.
- Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to crush them.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, dust the top with powdered sugar and garnish with additional fresh raspberries before serving.
