Plum Cake

We had a get together at a friend's home and it was Party time. So, I tried this plum cake recipe. The outcome was a soft, spongy plum cake.

(I used a measuring jug for this)

Ingredients

Plums - 250 g (cut into small pieces and destoned)
Plain Yoghurt - 1 cup
Caster Sugar - 1/2 cup
Veg Oil - 75 ml
All Purpose Flour(Plain Flour/Maida) - 3 cups
Eggs - 2 medium sized
Baking powder - 1 1/2 tso
Baking soda - 1/2 tsp
Salt - A pinch


Method:

1. Have all ingredients readily measured and Preheat the oven to 180 deg C/350 deg F.
2. Grease and Line an 8 inch cake tin with greaseproof paper,
3. In a mixing bowl whisk together the ingredients such as the yoghurt, oil, sugar and eggs. In another mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Now, combine the wet and the dry ingredients together until smooth batter is formed
4. Transfer the batter into the greased tin and place the plums on top.
5. Bake for 35-45 minutes until the cake is golden on top. keep testing with a fork whether it comes out clean. This is the time to remove from the oven.
6. Allow it cool and now the cake is ready to be removed and served.. :)

Ready for the Party!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
