Steps
- 1
Beat the 6 eggs with a whisk until well combined and smooth. Add the two plain unsweetened yogurts and continue beating until fully mixed.
- 2
Add 2 yogurt containers (about 1 cup/250 ml) of extra virgin olive oil (use a mild flavor if you prefer). Add the zest of the 3 oranges, then add the juice of the 3 medium oranges.
- 3
Add the sweetener (do not use sugar or fructose, as fructose also turns into sugar after consumption). The recipe calls for half a yogurt container (about 1/4 cup/60 ml), but you can adjust to taste. Try the batter and add more or less depending on your preference. For me, less than half a container is enough, but adjust as you like.
- 4
Add 6 yogurt containers of cake flour (about 3 cups/375 g), stirring as you go. Add the 2 packets of baking powder and mix well until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Pour the batter into a pan greased with butter or oil and dusted with flour. Tap the pan to remove any excess flour.
- 5
Once the pan is ready, pour in the cake batter and let it rest for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). After the 20-minute rest, place the pan (not on a rack, but on a baking sheet) in the middle of the oven. Lower the temperature to 350°F (180°C) and bake with both top and bottom heat (no convection) for about 40 minutes. Do not open the oven while baking.
- 6
Check for doneness by inserting a thin knife into the cake; if it comes out clean, the cake is done. Let it cool in the pan, covering it with a napkin. After 1 to 1.5 hours, remove the cake from the pan. It will be ready to serve in 2 to 3 hours.
