EASY STRAWBERRY YOGURT CAKE INGREDIENTS
All-purpose flour
Baking soda
Eggs
Raw sugar
Plain yogurt
Butter
Lemon juice
Strawberries, halved
TIPS FOR THE BEST HOMEMADE FRESH STRAWBERRY CAKE
Use 9″, 8″ or 8×8″ pan. Make sure to prepare the pan well so the cake won’t stick. I like to layer the bottom with parchment paper and grease the sides.
It’s really important to bring eggs, yogurt and melted butter to a room temperature before baking to avoid lumps and curdling. Beat eggs and sugar until fluffy, for a minimum of 5 minutes but once adding the rest of the ingredients mix just until combined. Overmixed batter will create a gummy texture.
HOW TO STORE
Store the cake in room temperature for up to 2 days and then refrigerate for up to a week.
To freeze it, place cake slices in a zip-top freezer bag. Leave out for a few hours to defrost. It will taste as it was just baked!!
