Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 3/4 cup Oat Flour finely powdered
- 1/2 cup Cocoa Powder unsweetened
- 3/4 cup Cane Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek Yogurt plain, full-fat
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
Mix-ins
- 1/4 cup Chocolate finely chopped, dark
- 1/4 cup Walnuts finely chopped
- 6 Strawberries large, quartered
- 1 tbsp Cocoa Powder for dusting, unsweetened
Instructions
Prepare the Dry Ingredients
- Sift together the whole wheat flour, oat flour, cocoa powder, and salt at least 3-5 times for a light and airy texture.
Combine Wet Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, dissolve the sugar completely into the Greek yogurt.
- Add the baking powder and baking soda to the yogurt mixture and let it sit for a few minutes. The mixture will become slightly foamy.
- Gently stir in the olive oil until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
- Gradually add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Add Mix-ins
- Fold in the chopped strawberries, dark chocolate, and walnuts.
Bake the Cake
- Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease and flour a 9-inch cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool and Decorate
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once slightly warm, dust the top with unsweetened cocoa powder and decorate with fresh strawberries.
Serve
- Slice and serve your delicious Rustic Strawberry & Chocolate Yogurt Cake. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips
- For a richer chocolate flavor, use high-quality dark chocolate with a high percentage of cacao.
- If you don't have oat flour, you can easily make it by blending rolled oats in a food processor until finely powdered.
- To prevent the strawberries from sinking to the bottom, gently fold them into the batter at the very end.
- For a more intense chocolate taste, consider adding 1-2 tablespoons of strong brewed coffee to the wet ingredients.
