Here’s the truth: I make this cake every single night, and not only is it delicious, creamy, and satisfying… I haven’t gained a single pound from it. It’s the only dessert I can enjoy after dinner without feeling heavy or guilty. At just 90 calories per slice, it’s the perfect treat for anyone who wants something sweet but still light.
And the best part?
It takes just a few simple ingredients and comes out perfect every time.
Ingredients
2 cups (about 500 g) Greek yogurt
3 medium eggs
½ cup (about 60 g) cornstarch
Sweetener of your choice (erythritol, honey, stevia, etc.)
3 drops natural vanilla extract
Instructions
Mix the wet ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, eggs, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Mix well by hand or with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the cornstarch
Sift the cornstarch over the mixture, then gently stir it in. This helps prevent lumps and keeps the final texture silky.
Prepare the pan
Line a 18–20 cm (7–8 inch) baking pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease it or slightly moisten it so it sticks well to the sides.
Pour and smooth
Transfer the batter into the pan and spread the top evenly with a spatula.
Bake
Place in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the surface turns lightly golden.
Let the cake cool for at least 30 minutes before you remove it from the pan — this step helps it set perfectly.
Tips for the Best Result
Want it extra creamy? Replace a portion of the Greek yogurt with light ricotta.
Serve it with fresh fruit, a spoon of raspberry compote, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2–3 days (if it lasts that long!).
