This easy Greek yogurt cake is made with just five simple ingredients in one bowl. Moist, fluffy, and oil-free, it’s perfect for breakfast, dessert, or a midday snack. Customizable with add-ins like citrus zest, berries, or chocolate chips, this versatile cake is a healthier option that doesn’t sacrifice taste.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (at least 2% fat, preferably 4%)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • Cooking spray (for pan)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray your preferred baking pan (8×8 square, 9×5 loaf, 8–9 inch round, or Bundt) with cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with a hand mixer for about 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and mix again until smooth.
  4. Add baking soda and gradually mix in the flour in 1/4 cup portions, just until the batter forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 30–45 minutes, depending on the pan: 35 minutes (square or round), 30 minutes (Bundt), 40–45 minutes (loaf), or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and serve.

Notes

  • Use only Greek yogurt with at least 2% fat—non-fat or regular yogurt won’t work.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to maintain a soft, fluffy texture.
  • Customize with add-ins like lemon zest, vanilla extract, chocolate chips, or berries.
  • Store at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze individual slices for up to 3 months.
