Raspberry Yogurt Cake : Lower Carb Recipe


Today, I share this lower carb raspberry yogurt cake recipe. It's from Ewelina, who writes: "This creamy and fruity cake is absolutely perfect. It reminds me a little bit of panna cotta, but it's more creamy and the fruits inside make a big difference... " 

Ingredients:
make 12 slices
6.6g carbs per slice 
For the cake 
· 750 g full fat greek style yogurt
· 1 tbsp. Vanilla extract
· 12g Splenda (sweetener)
· 24 g gelatine (powder)
· 200 g whipping cream, cooled/chilled

· 300 g frozen raspberries 
For the raspberry cream
· 125g mascarpone cheese
· 2 tbsp. raspberries
· 2 tbsp. splenda

Preparation:
Cake:
· Line a 22 diameter springform tin with baking paper. You will need to cut a circle for the base and a long, 15cm wide strip of paper that you will use to line the side of the tin.
· In a big bowl mix yogurt with splenda.
· Dissolve gelatine in ¼ cup of hot water. Add 4 tbsp. of yogurt mixture to gelatine and mix well until gelatine well dissolved.
· Combine gelatine mixture with yogurt.
· Whip the cream and add gently to yogurt mixture.
· Add frozen raspberries (put aside 2 tbsp. for the cream) and mix it all very gently.
· Pour the mixture into the tin and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Cream:

· Mix mascarpone with raspberries and splenda. Spread the cream on the top of set cake. 

Enjoy :)

  2. The cake looks great!
    In daily life I use both yogurt and Splenda sweetener.My favorite yogurt is called balkanic yogurt and it tastes great. It can be used in a lot of culinary activities:drinking, baking,cooking as a dip etc..

  3. Many thanks to you all for your comments so far.

    It was interesting to read that DUTA uses balkanic yogurt.
    It got me thinking about the many different types of yogurt there are.
