Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Prepare a 20 cm diameter cake pan by lining it with parchment paper.
-
In a bowl, combine the 4 egg yolks and 40 grams of sugar. Use an electric mixer to whisk them together for at least 6 minutes until the mixture becomes pale and creamy.
-
Add the 40 grams of cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt to the egg yolk mixture. Mix everything together using a whisk until well combined.
-
Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 400 grams of Greek yogurt into the mixture. Continue mixing with your whisk until you achieve a smooth and uniform batter.
-
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the 4 egg whites, 35 grams of sugar, and the packet of vanilla sugar using an electric mixer. Beat them for approximately 10 minutes until stiff peaks form.
-
Gently fold the egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture, being careful not to deflate the batter. Use a spoon to stir well and ensure everything is fully incorporated.
-
Transfer the mixture into the ready-made cake pan and level it out.
-
Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes at 160°C (320°F). Then, reduce the temperature to 140°C (285°F) and bake for another 10 minutes.

When the cake is done, take it out of the oven and allow it to cool fully.

Note
- Strain the yogurt: To make greek yogurt, you can strain the yogurt through a cheesecloth or a coffee filter to remove the whey and produce a thicker, creamier yogurt.
- Adjust the sugar: If you prefer your yogurt to be sweeter or less sweet, you can add more or less sugar to the recipe. You can also use a sugar substitute, such as honey or maple syrup, to sweeten the yogurt.
- Try a different extract: Instead of using vanilla extract, you could try using a different extract, such as almond or lemon, to give the yogurt a unique flavor.
- Add mix-ins: You can add a variety of mix-ins to the yogurt to customize it to your liking. Some ideas include chopped nuts, chocolate chips, fresh fruit, and granola.
