Drescription

This cake is one of our most versatile dessert recipes. You can dress it up in countless ways. Enjoy it with a simple dusting of powdered sugar and a cup of coffee, or pile it high with an array of toppings. At the height of summer, we love the classic combination of whipped cream, berries or grilled peaches, and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Then, as colder weather arrives, pivot and try topping this cake with warm cinnamon apples and a drizzle of salted caramel sauce. For the holidays, serve it with a rum vanilla cranberry sauce.

Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup canola or olive oil
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • whipped cream and fresh mixed berries, for topping

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  2. In a large bowl, beat together sugar and oil until smooth, 2-3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, until incorporated. Stir in yogurt and vanilla extract. Gradually add dry ingredients into yogurt mixture until just combined.
  3. Pour batter into a greased a 9-in. round baking pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 30-35 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  4. Garnish with whipped cream and fresh berries if desired.
