Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Low-fat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Red or black seedless grapes
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, low-fat plain Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk or hand mixer to beat until smooth and well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the grapes, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top lightly with powdered sugar, if desired, before serving.
Slice and serve your Low Fat Harvest Grape Cake as a delightful dessert or afternoon treat.
