Preparation

How to prepare Yogurt and Apple Plumcake

To make the yogurt and apple plumcake, first melt 3 oz of butter in a saucepan or microwave and set it aside. Peel the apples, cut them in half 1, and remove the core. First, slice them 2 and then dice them into 1/2 inch cubes 3.

Pour the eggs and sugar into a large bowl 4 and beat with an electric mixer until you get a light and frothy mixture. At this point, gradually incorporate the flour 5 and baking powder 6, keeping the mixer running at a lower speed.

Once the dry ingredients are well absorbed, first add the melted butter that has cooled slightly 7 and then the yogurt 8, continuing to mix to combine everything well. Also, add the grated lemon zest 9.

Finally, add the apples to the mixture 10, incorporating them with a spatula 11. Pour the batter into a 14x4x4 inch loaf pan, greased and floured 12.

Dip the blade of a knife into the remaining 0.7 oz of butter that you previously melted, then make a cut in the center of the batter lengthwise 13; this way, you’ll achieve the classic crack found in plumcakes. Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 1 hour and 15 minutes on the middle rack 14. Once cooked, take it out of the oven and let it cool before enjoying your yogurt and apple plumcake 15.

Storage

The yogurt and apple plumcake can be stored at room temperature for 3 days, covered with a cake dome.

You can freeze it after baking and completely cooling it.

Tip

If you prefer, you can enrich the batter with chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts!
