Ingredients

Scale

Cake

  • 100 g granulated sugar
  • 240 ml plain Greek yogurt
  • 60 ml vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs, separated
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 125 g all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Topping

  • 15 g powdered sugar
  • 120 ml heavy whipping cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan. Set your oven to 175°C. Get an 20 cm round cake pan ready by greasing it and adding parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually mix these dry components into the wet mixture until just blended.
  3. Mix wet ingredients and yolks. Grab a large mixing bowl. Whisk the yogurt, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract together. Then add in the egg yolks and granulated sugar. Whisk everything until it’s smooth and well mixed.
  4. Whip egg whites. Using a clean bowl, whisk the egg whites together with cream of tartar until soft peaks appear. Gradually mix in 1 tablespoon of sugar, whisking until stiff peaks form.
  5. Combine batter. Carefully incorporate the whipped egg whites into the cake batter in 2 to 3 parts, being gentle so you don’t deflate it.
  6. Bake the cake. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and level the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown, and a toothpick comes out clean when you check.
  7. Rest and cool cake. After baking, let the cake rest in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, move it to a wire rack to finish cooling down.
  8. Whip cream topping. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until you get stiff peaks.
  9. Finish and serve. When the cake’s cooled down completely, spread the whipped cream on top. You can serve it right away, maybe topped with fresh berries or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.

Notes

  • Cream of tartar is optional but helps stabilize the whipped egg whites.
  • Be gentle when folding the egg whites to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  • Chilling the bowl for whipping cream gives better volume and texture.
