This is an easy yogurt cake that uses the yogurt container to measure all of the ingredients. It's ready in under an hour and the perfect not-too-sweet snack or breakfast treat. It's known in France as "Gâteau au Yaourt" and is typically the first cake that French children learn how to make. My son attends a French school and has made this with his classmates.

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 3/4 cups flour
2 1/4 cups sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon clove
1 3/4 cups applesauce
1 1/4 cups dannon plain nonfat yogurt
1 eggs or 1/2 cup egg substitute
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup raisins
1 1/2 cups dannon plain nonfat yogurt
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • In large bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, allspice, salt and cloves.
  • Add applesauce, yogurt, egg, and oil; mix well.
  • Stir in raisins (note: I like to soften the raisins in hot water for a few minutes before adding them-they're plumper and softer that way).
  • Pour into greased and floured 12-cup Bundt or 13 x 9 inch pan.
  • Bake at 325 F.
  • for 50- 60 mins, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool 15 mins.
  • Serve with Quick Yogurt Glaze: Glaze: In small bowl, combine Dannon Plain Nonfat Yogurt, brown sugar and vanilla.
  • Beat with fork or whisk until smooth.
  • (This is also good with orange or lemon extract instead of vanilla).

Tips:

  • Use fresh yogurt: Fresh yogurt will give your cake a more tangy and flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh yogurt on hand, you can use Greek yogurt or sour cream instead.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
  • Use a variety of spices: The spices in this cake are what give it its unique flavor. Feel free to experiment with different spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or cardamom.
  • Serve the cake with fresh fruit or whipped cream: This will add a touch of sweetness and freshness to the cake.

Conclusion:

The yogurt spice cake is an easy and delicious cake that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist and fluffy texture and tangy flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a dessert that is both delicious and easy to make, give this yogurt spice cake a try. You won't be disappointed!
