Fluffy yogurt cake is a delightful and moist cake that gets its light and airy texture from the addition of yogurt. This cake is easy to make and can be enjoyed as a simple dessert or a sweet treat with your afternoon tea or coffee.
To make a fluffy yogurt cake, start by preheating your oven and preparing a cake pan with parchment paper or non-stick baking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and yogurt until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30-35 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake is cooled, you can dust it with powdered sugar or frost it with your favorite frosting. Serve the fluffy yogurt cake slices and enjoy the light and moist texture that the yogurt adds to this delightful dessert.
