Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

For the Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, granulated sugar, eggs, vegetable oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

  5. Gently fold in the blueberries.

  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  7. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  8. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth.

  9. Once the cake is completely cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.

Enjoy this tangy and moist lemon blueberry yogurt cake, a delightful dessert that combines the bright flavors of lemon and blueberry in a healthier treat!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Little Caesars Is Offering $5 Large Pizzas to Amazon Prime Members — Through June 26

A $5 large pizza is a great value — and there are a few easy ways to make it a more balanced meal.

Choosing the Classic Cheese over the Pepperoni cuts back on saturated fat and sodium, since pepperoni is one of the saltier pizza toppings.

Look for cans with no added salt or sugar to keep things clean, and don’t skip the juice in the can — that liquid is packed with flavor and nutrients worth cooking with.
