If you’re looking for a light, fluffy, and delicious cake with minimal ingredients, this Healthy 4-Ingredient Yogurt Cake is the perfect choice! It’s naturally sweet, rich in protein, and incredibly easy to make. Perfect for breakfast, a snack, or dessert!
Ingredients
- Greek Yogurt (1 cup) – Adds creaminess and protein.
- Eggs (4 large) – Helps with structure and fluffiness.
- Honey or Maple Syrup (¼ cup) – Natural sweetness without refined sugar.
- Cornstarch (¼ cup) – Gives the cake a light, delicate texture.
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 6-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk or electric mixer until frothy.
Gently mix in the Greek yogurt and honey (or maple syrup) until smooth.
Sift in the cornstarch and fold gently until fully combined. Avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool completely before slicing. Enjoy plain or with fresh fruit on top!
Notes
- Use full-fat Greek yogurt for a creamier texture.
- Whisk eggs well for a light, airy cake.
- Do not overmix once adding cornstarch to keep it fluffy.
