Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 1/4 cups fresh strawberries, halved or quartered

  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour (for tossing strawberries)

 

  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Prep Oven & Pan:
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line an 8-inch round cake pan with parchment paper.

  2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
    In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. Cream Butter & Sugar:
    In a large bowl, cream softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

  4. Add Eggs & Yogurt:
    Beat in eggs one at a time. Add vanilla and Greek yogurt. Mix until smooth and creamy.

  5. Combine Wet & Dry:
    Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined—do not overmix.

  6. Fold in Strawberries:
    Toss strawberries with 1 tbsp flour to prevent sinking. Fold half into the batter.

  7. Assemble & Bake:
    Pour batter into prepared pan. Top with remaining strawberries.
    Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. Cool & Serve:
    Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
    Dust with powdered sugar just before serving.

Notes

  • Use vanilla or strawberry yogurt for added flavor.

  • Pairs beautifully with whipped cream or a dollop of crème fraîche.

  • Store covered at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
