ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 240 g yoghurt
- 3 tbsp 0000 flour
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- Lemon zest
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 pinch of salt
- 5 tbsp sugar
Preparation
- First, separate the yolks from the whites and set them both aside.
- In a large bowl, mix the egg yolks with the yogurt. Then add the flour a little at a time, stirring constantly.
- Add the cornstarch, lemon zest, and juice. Mix well until you get a uniform dough.
- In another container, whisk the egg whites together with the salt. When they begin to foam, add the sugar a little at a time and continue beating until you get a firm and shiny meringue.
- Carefully and with enveloping movements, integrate the meringue into the previous preparation.
- Make a cake pan, preferably made of silicone, or if you’re using a metal one, make sure to grease and flour it to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Preheat the oven to 150°C.
- Pour the mixture into the mold and place this mold inside a larger spring. Add hot water to a well, reaching up to the middle of the mold, thus creating a water bath.
- Bake for 30 minutes at 150°C. Then lower the temperature to 140°C and bake for another 30 minutes.
- Once the time has elapsed, remove from the oven and allow to cool before unmolding.
With this recipe, you will not only get a delicious cake, but also a unique experience on the palate.
The freshness of the lemon and the softness of the yoghurt make this dessert a real treat.
Perfect to share with family, friends or just to treat yourself. Enjoy!
