Ingredients
  

  • 240 g all-purpose flour sifted or aerated
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 200 g white sugar
  • 56 g salted butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 240 ml plain Greek yogurt
  • 5 ml pure vanilla extract
  • 480 g raspberries fresh or frozen
  • 8 g flour for coating berries
  • 30 g lemon zest

Equipment

  • Springform Pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. If your oven has a convection setting, use it. Line a springform pan with parchment paper and grease with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix 2 cups flour with baking powder.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together white sugar, melted butter, and eggs until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Mix in Greek yogurt and vanilla extract just until combined.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, whisking just until combined. Do not over-mix.
  6. In the same bowl used for dry ingredients, toss ⅓ of the raspberries with 1 tablespoon of flour.
  7. Carefully fold the flour-coated raspberries and 1 tablespoon of lemon zest into the batter.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with remaining lemon zest and arrange the remaining raspberries on top in a circular pattern.
  9. Bake on the middle rack for about 45-50 minutes with convection or up to 1 hour without, until a tester comes out clean.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes, then release from the pan. Remove the parchment paper and transfer the cake to a plate.
  11. Serve dusted with powdered sugar and topped with fresh raspberries.

Notes

Dust with powdered sugar before serving for an elegant touch and use fresh raspberries for a burst of flavor.
