EASY FRENCH YOGURT CAKE || and easy, sweet recipe

The girls have recently started baking on their own….and I am loving it! Savanna first made this recipe last year while studying France, and it has become a family favorite! It’s delicious, easy and we usually have all of the ingredients on hand! If you are craving a simple and delicious treat, or you have a little chef that wants to be more independent in the kitchen, this is the perfect easy, sweet recipe!

F R E N C H Y O G U R T C A K E

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup Greek or plain yogurt

1 cup sugar

3 eggs

1 1/2 cups all purpose flour

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 cup avocado or olive oil

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

GLAZE: 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 3/4 cup powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a bread pan with nonstick oil.

In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, sugar and eggs until well blended. Next, stir in the flour, baking powder, salt and vanilla. Finally, stir in the oil until smooth.

Pour batter in pan and bake 40-50 minutes. To determine if it’s done, insert a toothpick in the center of the cake and if it is clean when you pull it out, your cake is done.

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Remove from pan. Blend glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle with glaze over the warm cake. Slice and enjoy!
