Let’s do it?
How do you make this Vanilla and Strawberry Cake?
Start by mixing the dry ingredients and then the liquids.
Mix all the ingredients very well, without beating the dough too much. Don’t forget that you should really beat the egg whites so that the cake gets fluffier and lighter.
Preheat the oven before placing the cake in the oven. It is essential for the cake to cook evenly and at a constant temperature.
For the frosting, just place the yoghurt to drain on a cloth, over a container, overnight.
For this recipe you’ll need:
- Strawberries
- Oatmeal flour
- Cornstarch
- Brown sugar
- Eggs
- Milk
- Lemon
- Coconut oil
- Vanilla essence
- Salt
- Baking soda
- Baking powder
- Yogurt
What are the tricks to getting this Strawberry and Vanilla Cake right?
- Cornstarch helps make the cake fluffier.
- The beaten egg whites make a difference in the final texture and lightness of the cake, as air is incorporated when the egg whites are beaten.
- Do not beat the dough too much once the egg whites are set. The idea is to just incorporate all the ingredients together.
- Strawberries in the cake dough add more texture and don’t let the cake dry out, in addition to adding more flavor to the cake dough.
- The yogurt topping is essential to make the cake very creamy and delicious.
