A simple, delicious cake made with just three ingredients: vanilla Greek yogurt, eggs, and cornstarch, resulting in a smooth, creamy texture perfect for dessert.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 2/3 cups nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt Use nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt for sweetness and creaminess.
- 4 large eggs Provides richness and helps the cake set.
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch Gives structure to the cake.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C) or air fryer to 320°F (160°C).
- Spray a 6-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, then line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the vanilla Greek yogurt and eggs until the mixture looks smooth and uniform.
- Gradually sprinkle in the cornstarch while whisking until the batter is lump-free and smooth.
Baking
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the air fryer for 20-23 minutes or in the oven for 70-75 minutes, until set around the edges and the center has a slight jiggle.
Cooling and Serving
- Let the cake cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Slice cold and optionally drizzle with honey before serving.
Notes
Whisk the batter until truly uniform to avoid lumps. Chill fully for clean slicing and best texture. Optional honey adds sweetness without affecting the cake.
