Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 120 milliliters Apple sauce (unsweetened)
- 120 grams Greek yogurt (low fat, plain)
- 3 large Egg whites
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 120 milliliters Skim milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the apple sauce, Greek yogurt, egg whites, vanilla extract, and sugar. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula or whisk. Avoid overmixing to keep the batter light.
Slowly stir in the skim milk until the batter is smooth and lump-free.
Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cake is cool, optionally dust with powdered sugar or serve with fresh fruit for added flavor.
