Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup reduced-fat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup melted butter, cooled slightly
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 pound strawberries, hulled, half sliced and half halved
Honey whipped cream, for serving (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with nonstick cooking spray; line the bottom with parchment paper.
Combine the eggs and 1 cup of the sugar in a medium bowl and beat on high speed with a handheld mixer until thick, pale and doubled in size, about 4 minutes. Add the yogurt, melted butter and vanilla; beat for another minute. Add the flour, baking powder and salt; mix until just combined, 30 seconds. Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly to the edges. Sprinkle the sliced berries on top. Pour the remaining batter over the berries; spread evenly once again. Top decoratively with the strawberry halves and sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Serve with honey whipped cream.

Tips:

Always use fresh strawberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries, but thaw them completely before using.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake, or the cake will be dry.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help prevent the frosting from melting.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner cut off to pipe the frosting.
Decorate the cake with additional strawberries, whipped cream, or sprinkles, if desired.
