A scattering of fresh berries adds a pop of bright colour and tartness to this fluffy mini cakes.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup plain whole-milk yogurt
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp grated lemon zest
  • 1 cup fresh red berries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Lightly grease and flour the cups of a mini-loaf pan
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together yogurt, sugar, eggs and canola oil until smooth and well blended.
  3. Add flour, baking powder, salt and lemon zest, and stir until the batter is smooth and silky. Pour into the prepared mini-loaf tin, dividing evenly between the cups. Scatter berries on top of the batter, using around 2 tbsp per loaf.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are pale gold and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the centre of one loaf.
  5. Let cool on a rack for 20 minutes in the pan, then turn out and let cool completely before serving.
