This soft, creamy and incredibly moist Berry Yogurt Cake Recipe is made without eggs and butter. Lightly flavored from the berries in the yogurt, it’s an incredible light and spongy cake that can be an all time favorite

Made with olive oil and berry flavored greek yogurt, this Berry Yogurt Cake is a personal my personal favorite of mine because its so easy to pull together. Dress it up with summer berries or serve with just a dust of sugar.
Just the addition of berry yogurt makes this cake perfect for summer tea parties or even Mother’s Day brunch.

I baked this eggless berry yogurt cake with gluten free flour and no eggs but wasn’t so impressed with the outcome. May be the Gluten Free flour needs an egg or two to get that spongy texture. Until I perfect the Gluten Free recipe, you enjoy the recipe with all purpose flour. You will never go wrong with this recipe as this one is baked by me many many times.
So, What happens when we bake with yogurt?
Greek yogurt or homemade yogurt makes the cakes extra moist. The tartness from the yogurt adds in a very rich and delicious flavor notes to the cakes. Above all, the acidity from the yogurt activates baking soda, which can make baked goods fluffy and light and work as a replacement of eggs.
Why we love baking with Olive Oil?
Substituting olive oil for butter is another great addition. Usually, olive oil cakes tend to be spongier and have a longer shelf life.
Not sure about you, but I have been watching the fat intake. Olive oil cuts down on “bad” cholesterol and saturated fat in your baking. It’s considered a “good” fat, unlike butter. It also adds extra antioxidants (natural chemicals that help protect our cells) and vitamin E to your baked goods, giving your desserts a heart-healthy boost.

Ingredients you need to make Yogurt Berry Cake
- All purpose Flour: All-purpose flour mixed with a bit of corn flour gave me the best result. The cake was spongy.
- Baking Powder & Baking Soda: Both baking powder and soda help making the cake airy.
- Olive oil: Olive oil makes this cake spongy and moist.
- Sugar: I used 3/4 cup of granulated sugar in this recipe, but add more if you like your cakes a little sweeter.
- Greek Yogurt: This is one ingredient that I use a lot my cake recipes. The creaminess helps keep egg less cakes moist, fluffy and light. I have used a store bought full fat Greek yogurt.
- Berry Yogurt: I used half cup of strawberry yogurt to impart that berry flavor into the cake. You can use different flavored yogurt as well such as – blueberry or mango. If you don’t have berry yogurt handy then make your own by mixing 1/4 cup berries with 1/2 cup of yogurt. The crushed berries in the yogurt add an amazing flavor profile to this sponge cake.
- Vanilla Extract, Rose Water & Salt: Used for flavor.
- Dry Fruits – I used store bought dried fruits. You can use tutti frutti or candied fruit peels.
Each ingredient is important and has a very specific job.
