  • Difficulty: Very easy
  • Cost: Very cheap
  • Preparation time: 15 Minutes
  • Cooking time: 45 Minutes
  • Portions: 9.5 inches pan
  • Cuisine: Italian
  • Seasonality: All seasons

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 9 oz sugar
  • 0.4 cup vegetable oil
  • 0.5 cup lemon yogurt
  • 7 oz gluten-free flour (I use Schar mix for desserts)
  • 1 lemon zest
  • 1 lemon flavor
  • 1 packet gluten-free baking powder
  • to taste powdered sugar

Steps

  • To prepare this delicious gluten-free yogurt and lemon cake, start by separating the 4 eggs into two different bowls, with yolks in one and whites in the other. Whip the egg whites until stiff with an electric mixer.

  • Add the sugar to the yolks and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy and foamy. With the mixer on low, slowly pour in the oil, yogurt, lemon flavor, and grated lemon zest, mixing well to combine.

    Also add the gluten-free cake mix with the sifted baking powder, mixing thoroughly until you have a smooth batter. Then fold in the stiffly beaten egg whites gently, moving from bottom to top to avoid deflating them.

  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured pan or lined with parchment paper, level it, and bake in a preheated static oven at 320°F for about 45-50 minutes. Baking times may vary.

    Once baked, let the soft gluten-free yogurt and lemon cake cool in its pan. Before serving and enjoying, dust it with powdered sugar.

… Vane’s tips

The cake keeps for 5 days under a cake dome.

You can also make it with orange, in which case you can add chocolate chips to the batter.
