Ingredients:
- 1 cup of self-rising flour (You can also use all-purpose flour mixed with a teaspoon of baking powder and a pinch of salt)
- 1 cup of Greek yogurt (Plain or flavored for a twist)
- 1 cup of granulated sugar (Adjust based on your sweetness preference)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, Greek yogurt, and granulated sugar. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick but smooth.
- Pour into the Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula for even baking.
- Bake: Place the cake in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve: Slice the cake and serve as is, or dress it up with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.
Tips:
- Flavor Variations: Add vanilla extract, lemon zest, or cocoa powder for different flavors.
- Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for a week.
