strawberry-almond-yogurt cake
sometimes it just happens that you have all the leftovers ingredients on hand, and magical googling instantly unearths the perfect recipe!
somehow this cake feels healthy, despite the three eggs in the recipe, due to the absence of that wicked bad butter…*sigh* i have to watch out for this now, and serve it less (no i am never going to substitute evil margarine either!) to my kids. we will still have butter for sure, but not as much. *sigh*sigh*sigh*
easy! based on the recipe from happy home baking follows…
strawberry yogurt almond cake
1/2 cup Greek style plain yogurt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup golden brown sugar
3 eggs
1/2 cup ground toasted almonds
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tsps. baking powder
1/2 cup canola oil
around 1 cup diced strawberries
preheat oven to 350F. butter and line an 8-inch round pan with parchment paper, then butter again.
mix yogurt, both sugars, and eggs in a large bowl.
add ground almonds and sift flour and baking powder into the mixture. stir until combined.
add oil and mix well.
fill the pan with two thirds of the batter then arrange strawberries over, then pour in the remaining batter.
bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean.
let cool before unmolding.
