Hallo everyone!!!
Sunday is usually our relaxing day at home. No hurries… no stress… but sometimes I like to bake something quick and simple, like this delicious yogurt cake, and enjoy it with my family in these pleasant autumnn evenings .
After a long walk in the forest , it is nice to have this delicious sponge cake with a nice cuo of tea … although my children prefer to dip it in hot chocolate… Mmm Yummy!!!
I could not resist … I have to try it !
On our walk I have collected this leaves… I love Fall!!!
This cake it´s so easy to do and always a success!
We need a little yogurt pot for this recipe and we use the pot to measure the rest of the ingredients. I mean: 1 plain yogurt pot (125 gr, or 1/2 cup) +1 pot of mild olive oil +2 pots of sugar + 3 pots of flour + 3 eggs +grated zest of 1 lemon +2 tsp (16 gr) baking powder + 1 ts vainilla extract.
Although I prefer to give you the recipe in grams because I have reduced the amounts of some of the ingredients, like sugar and oil.
