Ingredients :
- 4 eggs, separate the whites from the yolks
- 3 tablespoons of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of yeast
- 3 tablespoons corn starch
- 350-400 g of Greek yogurt
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 170°C. Line a 16-18 cm diameter mold with baking paper.
- In a bowl, mix the egg yolks with the sugar, yeast and corn starch.
- Gently fold the Greek yogurt into the mixture until you obtain a smooth paste, without mixing too much.
- In another clean bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy and stiff (about 15-20 minutes).
- Gently add the egg whites to the dough, being careful not to overmix to maintain lightness.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and let it surface.
- Cook in the preheated oven for 50 minutes at 170°C, then lower the temperature to 140°C and continue cooking for another 10 minutes. Leave the cake to cool with the oven turned off for another 10 minutes.
- Dust with icing sugar before serving.
- Advise :
- Be sure to fold in the egg whites gently so as not to lose the airy texture of the dough.
- You can add vanilla extract or lemon zest to flavor the cake to your liking.
- Make sure all utensils used to beat egg whites are clean and dry for best foaming results.
- Enjoy your meal !
