Ingredients
-
1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
-
½ cup vegetable oil
-
1 cup sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking powder
-
½ teaspoon baking soda
-
¼ teaspoon salt
-
1 cup fresh raspberries
-
1 cup fresh peaches, peeled and chopped
-
1 tablespoon flour (for coating the fruit)
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round or square cake pan.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Prepare Fruit: In a small bowl, toss the raspberries and chopped peaches with 1 tablespoon of flour to coat them lightly. This will help prevent the fruit from sinking to the bottom of the cake during baking.
-
Fold in Fruit: Gently fold the coated fruit into the batter.
-
Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool and Serve: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack. Serve as is or with a dusting of powdered sugar.
