Recipe Notes:

• Bake time: I realize that 200°C/390°F (180°C fan) is a high temperature for a cake, but this one requires a higher setting. Because of the juiciness of the strawberries, the bake time of this cake might be significantly impacted by a weak oven. It took me 30 minutes longer to bake at 180°C/350°F (160°C fan), and the crumb was somewhat more moist within.

• Measurements vary by nation – the sizes of a tablespoon and a cup are marginally different. For the most part, variations in recipes do not significantly impact the final result; but, when it comes to baking recipes, caution is necessary.

• This cake recipe is so forgiving that the variations in cups won’t matter; I’ve tried it with US and Australian cups, which have the biggest size differences, and the results were exactly the same.

• My Blueberry Cake and Lemon Yogurt Cake recipes are used to make the cake batter. A version of strawberry cake that was influenced by a number of recipes I’ve seen online, including those from Martha Stewart, Smitten Kitchen, and Natasha’s Kitchen.

• Storage: Because of the yogurt and oil, the crumb stays pleasant and moist for five days. Store in the refrigerator and reheat to room temperature before serving if the weather is hot and muggy where you are. It doesn’t need to be kept in the refrigerator if it’s chilly where you are.

FAQs 

How to make this easy Strawberry Cake

• Being that this doesn’t have creamed butter in it, it’s a one-bowl, hand mixed batter. Whisk Wet ingredients first, then mix the dry in.

• I was a little excited about this at first, but the strawberries made the batter so wet and weighed it down so much that it took an hour and forty minutes to cook! A small amount of the strawberries should be inside the cake. Most end up on top; they maintain their shape very well but ooze juice when you bite into them.

• I’m so unimaginative that the first thing I think of when I see baked goods with strawberries is cream. For me, serving must include a (large!) dollop of freshly whipped cream.

• However, I recently served it warm with ice cream, and it was so delicious that I had to show off my crazy side. Like most cakes, this one has a slightly “pudding-like” interior while still warm from the oven, which is why most cake recipes strongly advise you to wait and let the cake cool completely before cutting into it.

• However, the “pudding-like” texture of this Strawberry Cake combined with the warm strawberries somehow improved the taste experience. Particularly when I dropped that (risky! experimental!) scoop of ice cream on the side.
