Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Fine Mesh Sieve
  • Electric Hand Mixer
  • Springform Baking Pan
  • Parchment Paper
  • Silicone Spatula
  • Small Glass Bowls
  • Measuring Spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups GREEK YOGURT
  • 4 large EGGS
  • 0.5 cup GRANULATED SUGAR
  • 3 tbsp CORNSTARCH
  • 1 tbsp LEMON JUICE
  • 1 tsp VANILLA EXTRACT
  • 1 pinch SALT

Instructions
 

Step 1:

  • Preheat your oven to three hundred degrees. Line your baking pan with parchment paper now. Make sure the paper covers the sides.

Step 2:

  • Separate your egg yolks from the whites. Put the whites in a very clean bowl. Put the yolks in a different bowl.

Step 3:

  • Add the yogurt to the egg yolks. Mix them until they are very smooth. Add the vanilla and lemon juice now.

Step 4:

  • Sift the cornstarch into the yolk mixture. Whisk it until you see no lumps. Set this bowl aside for a moment.

Step 5:

  • Start beating the egg whites on low. Add a pinch of salt to them. Increase the speed to medium slowly.

Step 6:

  • Add the sugar to the whites gradually. Beat them until they form stiff peaks. They should look like white clouds.

Step 7:

  • Scoop one third of the whites out. Add them to the yogurt yolk mix. Fold them in very gently now.

Step 8:

  • Pour the rest of the whites in. Use a spatula to fold them slowly. Do not stir or the air leaves.

Step 9:

  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Tap the pan on the counter once. This removes any large air bubbles.

Step 10:

  • Place the pan in the hot oven. Bake it for about fifty minutes total. The top should be a light brown.

Step 11:

  • Turn off the oven when it is done. Leave the door open just a crack. Let the cake cool down slowly.

Step 12:

  • Remove the cake from the pan carefully. Dust it with some powdered sugar now. Serve it at room temperature or cold.

Notes

  • Use room temperature eggs for better volume.
  • Make sure your mixing bowl is grease free.
  • Fold the egg whites very slowly and gently.
  • Do not open the oven door while baking.
  • Let the cake cool inside the oven slowly.
  • Sift the cornstarch to avoid any tiny lumps.
  • Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor.
  • Grease the parchment paper for an easy release.
  • The cake might shrink a little while cooling.
