Jersey Yogurt Cake

Jersey Yogurt Cake is a simple cake, and that’s why we love it! It’s tender and fluffy, barely sweet, and has a wonderful hint of flavour from our natural yogurt.

Ingredients

• 225g of Jersey Dairy Natural Yogurt 
• 2 large eggs 
• 150g granulated sugar 
• 180ml olive oil 
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 
• Half a teaspoon of salt 
• 190g plain flour 
• Powdered sugar, for dusting

Method

– Preheat the oven to 180C.

– Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan lightly with olive oil and line it with parchment paper. 

– Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl, add the sugar, and whisk until pale and frothy (approx 1min). 

– Whisk in the Jersey yogurt, oil and vanilla extract. 

– Add the dry ingredients to the bowl. Whisk in the baking powder and salt. Add the flour and stir with a spatula until all the flour is mixed in. A few small lumps in the batter are fine, make sure you don’t overmix!

– Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread out evenly. Bake until the cake is lightly browned (approx 45mins). 

– Let the cake cool for 10 minutes and then remove from the pan. Allow the cake to cool completely on a cooling rack.

– Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy with a cup of tea or a glass of Jersey milk!
