Yogurt-Walnut Cake

Courses: Dessert
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups 292g / 10ozWalnut halves
2   Eggs
1 cup 198g / 7ozGranulated sugar
1 cup 237mlPlain yogurt
1 cup 62g / 2.2ozSifted all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlBaking powder

Recipe Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease and flour an 8-inch springform pan. (If a springform is not available, use an 8-inch round cake pan.)

Set aside 6 unbroken walnut halves and finely chop the remaining walnuts in the bowl of a food processor.

In a mixing bowl, blend the eggs with the sugar. Beat well for 2 minutes. Add the yogurt, flour, and baking powder. Beat 1 minute. Then add the chopped walnuts. Beat another minute. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.

Bake for 35 minutes, or until a knife or cake tester comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes. Loosen the sides by running a knife around the side of the pan. If you are using a springform pan, open it and loosen the bottom of the cake with a spatula. Turn the cake onto a cooling rack with a quick jerk. Immediately reverse the cake onto another cooling rack and garnish with the reserved walnut halves. Let the cake cool top-side up.

This recipe yields 6 servings.
