  • Light, Tender, Moist with a lovely lemon flavor is the best way to describe this lemon yogurt cake made just like the French grandmothers make! It is the perfect size to feed 2-4 people.
    Pans I use:
    6 Inch round cake pan: amzn.to/37Mvbff
    3 cup bundt pan: amzn.to/3whWVC0

    Ingredients:
    ▢3/4 cups all purpose flour
    ▢1 tsp baking powder
    ▢1/4 tsp salt
    ▢1/2 cup granulated sugar
    ▢1 tsp lemon zest or zest of one lemon
    ▢1/3 cup whole milk plan Greek Yogurt
    ▢1/4 cup canola oil
    ▢1 egg large
    ▢1/2 tsp vanilla extract
    Lemon Glaze
    1/2 cup powdered sugar
    dash of vanilla
    enough lemon juice to make a runny glaze
    Directions:
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
    Spray a 3 cup bundt pan, 6 inch cake pan or a 7.x 3 inch loaf pan that holds 3 cups of liquid with non stick baking spray. Line the bottom of pan with wax paper or parchment paper..
    In another bowl combine sugar and lemon zest. Stir to combine the two or use your fingers to rub it together.
    Add yogurt, oil, egg and vanilla to sugar mixture.
    Add in dry ingredients - flour, baking powder and salt.
    Gently mix in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stir just until flower is absorbed. Don't over mix.
    Mix up glaze while cake is baking.
    Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
    Let cake cool in the pan for just a couple minutes and then put onto a wire cooling rack.
    Brush cake with glaze until it soaks into cake, both the top and the sides.
    Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

    Welcome to my Kitchen! I'm Leigh Anne, the mother of four adult children and my husband and I are now empty nesters. I know the challenges of learning to cook for just the 2 of you, it feels like learning to cook all over again! After the kids left home, I found that I stopped making a lot of our family's favorite dishes and treats because those recipes just made too much food and I was tempted to eat too much!
    On this channel, I invite you into my kitchen each week where we learn how to make small batch recipes with big taste. You can still enjoy all those family favorite recipes, just less of it!I look forward to meeting you in the kitchen each week with a new recipe and video.
    You can find all my recipes on my website at www.yourhomebasedmom.com.#smallbatchrecipes #cookingfortwo #smallbatchcooking

    Hello Leigh Anne.
    I've just baked this cake. I won't lie. That's tasty as it is still hot, but it's so beautiful 😂 I'm so proud of myself. Being a learner, you have no idea how thrilled it makes me feel. Wow...
    Thank you so much, Leigh Anne .❤

    Very easy to make but very sweet for my family although i already reduced the icing by half. Maybe i will only dust the top lightly next time without the icing and using lemon yogurt for the cake for extra kick

    Thank you for sharing this video… I just wanted to know the measurements for the oil & yogurt you used for this recipe? I watched twice but I think you forgot to mention it….

    If you use bottled lemon juice for the glaze, about how much would you use?

    I have just made it to take to some co-workers this evening. In your video, why didn’t you flip the cake over? It looks a bit lop sided. Plus, don’t you put it on a pretty plate instead of on the rack? Just sayin’.

    • @LeighAnneWilkes
      @LeighAnneWilkes  2 місяці тому

      I rather like my vintage cooling rack but a pretty plate works too. Serve it with which ever side you prefer facing up. Enjoy!
