• 300 g flour
• 1 packet of baking powder
• 1 pinch of salt

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a loaf pan and dust with flour.
2. In a large bowl, beat the soft butter with the sugar until creamy and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time and stir each one in well before adding the next egg.
4. Add the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. If desired, add the grated lemon zest. Mix everything well.
5. In a separate bowl, mix the flour with baking powder and a pinch of salt.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the yoghurt mixture and stir gently until a smooth dough forms.
7. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan.
8. Bake the cloud cake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Before serving, dust the cloud cake with powdered sugar.

Tip: You can serve the cloud cake with fresh berries, a light lemon glaze or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to make it even more delicious.

This airy cloud cake with yogurt is a real treat for the senses. The combination of Greek yogurt and the airy consistency makes it a lighter and refreshing dessert or coffee treat. The delicate sweetness and slight acidity of the yoghurt give this cake a special touch. Bon appetit!
