Strawberry Yogurt Cake

A moist and tender cake made with fresh strawberries and creamy yogurt, perfect for a light dessert or afternoon snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour (for coating strawberries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Mix in yogurt and vanilla extract until well combined.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until incorporated.
  7. Toss the chopped strawberries with 1 tbsp flour to prevent sinking, then gently fold into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.
  9. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  10. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe strawberries for best flavor.
  • Can substitute sour cream for yogurt if desired.
  • Dust with powdered sugar or glaze once cooled for extra sweetness.
