Ingredients
  • cups 5% Greek yogurt 300 g
  • 4 large eggs
  • 5 tablespoons corn starch or tapioca flour or arrowroot powder
  • cup granulated erythritol
  • Neutral oil or butter for greasing the pan
  • Fresh strawberries for serving (optional)
  • Fresh blueberries for serving (optional)
  • Fresh raspberries for serving (optional)
  • Fresh blackberries for serving (optional)
  • Fresh mango diced, for serving (optional)
  • Honey for drizzling if not fully sugar free (optional)
  • Maple syrup for drizzling if not fully sugar free (optional)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting if not fully sugar free (optional)
  • Shaved chocolate for garnish (optional)
  • Lemon zest for garnish (optional)
  • Orange zest for garnish (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan, then line the bottom with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the Greek yogurt and eggs together until the mixture is smooth, pale, and completely blended with no streaks.
  3. Add the erythritol to the bowl and whisk until it fully dissolves into the yogurt and egg mixture.
  4. Sift the corn starch, tapioca flour, or arrowroot powder over the wet ingredients, then whisk gently just until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula so it reaches evenly to the edges.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top is lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edges, remove it from the pan, and cool completely on the rack.
  8. Before serving, top the cooled cake with fresh berries or mango, a sprinkle of lemon or orange zest, and shaved chocolate if desired; drizzle with honey, maple syrup, or dust with powdered sugar only if you do not need it fully sugar free.

Notes

- Use full-fat 5% Greek yogurt for the best creamy, custardy texture and reliable structure.
- If the batter looks slightly loose, do not add more starch; it sets as it bakes and firms further as it cools.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing so it has time to set and hold clean slices.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days; serve slightly chilled or let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before eating.
