The last three bakes I’ve done have not turned out, I was so upset. I figured out my baking powder had gone off. Got some fresh stuff and made these:

  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt , (or sour cream)
  • 1/2 cup extra LIGHT olive oil, (not extra virgin)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 250g all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 cup strawberries, hulled and diced
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 cup blueberries

The changes I made,

First step, I zested a whole orange into a scant 1 cup of sugar and combined until evenly incorperated. then also mixed in about a teaspoon each cardamom and ginger powder. maybe a little less cardamom, and a little more ginger. I use cane sugar.

Used 1 cup frozen cranberries and 1/2 cup frozen blueberries

Used two containers of berry greek yogurt.

Oil of choice was avacado.

Confidence regained. Don’t forget to check the date on your baking powder!
