Strawberry & Yoghurt Picnic Cake


Spring calls for something light, fresh and made for sharing!
Ingredients:
2 cups Baker's Dream Cake Wheat Flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
¾ cup sugar
2 eggs
1 cup plain yoghurt
½ cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
For the topping
½ cup fresh strawberries, sliced
1 Tbsp sugar
Icing sugar for dusting, optional
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a 20cm cake tin.
Combine the Baker's Dream Cake Wheat Flour, baking powder and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the sugar, eggs, yoghurt, oil and vanilla.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
Pour into the prepared tin and arrange the sliced strawberries on top.
Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Bake for 35 - 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Allow to cool before dusting lightly with icing sugar.
Tip: Keep the strawberries fairly dry after washing them to prevent adding too much moisture to your batter.
