  • Cook Time: 35 minutes
  • Cuisine Type: Fusion

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (atta)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup yogurt
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Handful of chopped nuts (optional)

Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour an 8-inch cake pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt and sugar until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the yogurt mixture. Stir until everything is well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently to avoid over-mixing. A few lumps are totally fine.
  6. If using, stir in the chopped nuts gently.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Suggestions

  • Substitute honey for sugar if you’re channeling your inner Winnie the Pooh.
  • Top with a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of melted dark chocolate for added flair.
  • Swap vegetable oil with coconut oil for a tropical twist that’ll make you feel like you’re on a beach.
  • If the batter looks too thick, add a splash more milk— just a splash, no waterfalling here.
