Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
what type of yogurt do I need to buy ???
thanks
Hi Alex,I have used plain Full Fat Yogurt and the result was amazing.
Hi Bincy, can I replace the butter with oil in this recipe? I sent you an email, please answer soon! I plan to make it pretty soon and this is urgent.
Hi Becklynn, Actually I have not tried this exact recipe with oil. So I am not sure about it. I would suggest you to reduce the amount of oil by 2 tbsp than butter ie to use 170 ml in place of 200 g butter.And as oil can't trap air like we do when creaming butter, to get better texture , I would suggest you to increase the amount of baking powder to 1 tsp instead of 1/2 tsp. I hope your lemon cake will turn out soft and delicious.
@Bincy Chris, Thank you so much! I did try it with oil and added more baking powder, but it turned out kind of like a block of cheese. So I don't recommend using oil! Thank you so much though and it tastes sooooo good!
Thank you so much for trying it and for sharing your experience! I’m so glad you still enjoyed the taste though ❤️
