  • 10

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 c all-purpose flour
  • 1 T baking powder
  • 1/2 c brown sugar
  • zest of 1 large orange
  • 1/2 t salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 c yogurt
  • 1/4 c butter, melted and cooled a bit
  • 1 c of strawberries, roughly chopped (more if you like)
  • 3 T large grain raw sugar
  • 1 t kosher salt

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 400F. Butter and flour an 11 inch cake tin.

2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and zest and set aside. In another bowl, beat together the eggs and then stir in the yogurt and butter. Add the wet ingredients into the dry and mix lightly until combined.

3. Pour batter into prepared tin and drop strawberries into the cake. Smush them a bit to let the juices run if you wish. Sprinkle the tops with the raw sugar and a light dusting of the salt. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden. Serve with whipping cream and strawberry sauce. Or eat plain.
