What is a Yoghurt and Nutella Bundt Cake?

It’s the cake that you’ll fall in love with! It’s soft and chocolatey, but not too sweet. It comes together easily and it’s not tricky to make.

Now, let’s talk about the “looks” of this dessert. Its gorgeous shape comes from using a Bundt Pan. It has a unique and distinctive shape, similar to that of a giant doughnut, a “Ciambellone” as Italians call it.

Ingredients for Yoghurt and Nutella Bundt Cake

It’s fairly simple to whip this greek Yoghurt and Nutella Bundt Cake. The best part yet is that you may already have all the ingredients in your cupboard. You will need 10 – 15 minutes to put everything together and the oven will do the rest.

3 Eggs: Use them at room temperature. If you just want to get started however and forgot to take them out of the fridge that’s ok. Place the eggs in a small bowl and cover with hot water for 30 seconds – 1 minute and this will immediately bring your eggs to the required temperature.

Granulated Sugar: 180 g will be enough to provide sweetness but not go overboard. I personally don’t like desserts that are too sweet.

Greek Yoghurt: The addition of greek yoghurt will add a tangy flavour and balance everything out.

Nutella: Simply spoon the Nutella over the batter after you’ve transferred the batter into the bundt cake pan. Then, using a toothpick, make a few swirls to combine.

Sunflower Oil: The addition of sunflower oil will give the bundt cake a soft and moist consistency once baked.

Flour: “00” flour is preferred but plain flour will work equally well if that’s what you have available. Make sure you sift the flour before baking.

Baking Powder: This, will, of course, make your cake rise. You can sift the flour and baking powder together.

Lemon Zest: The addition of the zest from one lemon will bring everything together and give it a subtle aroma.

- Powder Sugar: Use it for decorating the cake once it’s completely cooled down and just before serving it.
