Homemade cake

INGREDIENTS

A peel of lemon

3 eggs

1 natural yogurt

2 measures* of sugar

½ measures of oil

1 packet of yeast

3 measures of flour

Tip: *You can use a yogurt container as a measure

DIRECTIONS

1. Put all the ingredients in a bowl. I recommend you to follow the same order as the list of the ingredients, and mix with a blender every ingredient that you put in the bowl. For example: put the eggs in the bowl and whisk it, then put the yogurt and mix whit the blender, and do the same with all the ingredients. Doing it, you will get a more soft mix.

2. Put the mix in an appropriate recipient for the oven. I’ll use a square recipient, but you can use whatever recipient you have at home.

 

3. Put in the oven at 180˚C in the below position ,and wait until the mix rises. Then put the oven in the above and below position for a few minutes.

The cake will have this look:

Finally you can serve or add some extras as you want. For example I have covered it with sugar glass, and I have cut the cake in the middle and I added some fruit comfiture. (It looks delicious but it also tastes great!)

And this is the final look of my cake:

Enjoy it!

Introduction

Welcome to our modest cooking blog! 

So as to make this blog dynamic we will publish four posts per week. Each author will manage one week minimun per month.  

Our plan is the following: 

• On Mondays, we will post a salty recipe.
• On Wednesdays, you will find wether tips to improve your recipes or fast recipes.
• On Fridays, it will be the turn of the sweet recipes (yummy!). 
• On Sundays we will not cook, but we will show you how to decorate your cupcakes with original toppers.

If it is possible, each post will have various photos to illustrate each direction of the recipe. We think that this could be an useful tool to show how to cook.

Well, this is our idea. It might change depending on our amount of work and duties.We also accept suggerences and complaints! (You can write us below each post or send us a private message at cookingeatingenjoying@gmail.com) 

You can also follow us on Facebook. Like our page to receive all the news! :)
