From combining the ingredients to patiently waiting for the cake to bake, baking is one of the best, and most soothing, pastimes. One often overlooked ingredient that can actually be a secret weapon in a cake is yoghurt. With these yoghurt cake recipes, we’ll show you why this dairy ingredient should be front of mind when you take on your next baking project.
Our collection of yoghurt cake recipes includes classics such as our lemon yoghurt cake (yaiourtopita), an indulgent caramel-yoghurt cheesecake, and a strawberry, yoghurt and pistachio layer cake recipe. We’ve also got a Wizz Fizz-inspired frozen yoghurt cake, if you’re looking to get more out there.
Instead of plain yoghurt, some of these recipes use Greek yoghurt to create indulgent desserts. Serve these yoghurt cake recipes with either a dollop of cream, extra lemon zest or a scoop of vanilla ice-cream.
