Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a mini bundt cake pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in eggs one at a time, beating well, followed by vanilla extract.
4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients with yoghurt, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients, until just combined.
5. Gently fold in diced strawberries.
6. Spoon the batter into the bundt pan, filling each well about 3/4 full.
7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
8. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
9. Optionally, glaze with warmed strawberry jam and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Serving Suggestions
These mini cakes are delightful on their own or can be paired with a dollop of whipped cream. Serve them alongside a cup of tea or coffee for a perfect afternoon delight.
Pro Tips for Success
Ensure butter is softened for easier mixing, and don’t overmix the batter to maintain the cake’s tender crumb. If using strawberry-flavored yoghurt, you might adjust the sugar amount depending on its sweetness.
Storing and Reheating
Keep any leftover bundt cakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. To enjoy them warm, reheat in the oven at 300°F (150°C) for about 5 minutes.
FAQ Section
– Can I use frozen strawberries? Fresh is preferred for best texture, but thawed and drained frozen strawberries can work if needed.
– What if I don’t have a mini bundt pan? A muffin tin will suffice, though baking time might slightly vary.
