PRESENTATION
You just opened the fridge only to find out the bitter truth: you're out of eggs! So you think you can't make the apple cake you wanted your family to enjoy... but for every "without" there is a solution! We suggest combining the softness of the yogurt cake with the freshness of apples: the yogurt and apple cake without eggs is a fantastic twist on the soft apple one! The addition of Greek yogurt, with its gentle hint of acidity, replaces the eggs making this eggless dessert equally soft and fluffy. Of course, the apples take the spotlight. We preferred Fuji, crunchy and juicy, but you can also opt for other varieties like Royal Gala which are great for baking! Can you smell that aroma? We've just taken our yogurt and apple cake without eggs out of the oven, and we can't wait to taste it. Prepare it yourself for a fantastic snack!

How to prepare Eggless Apple Yogurt Cake
To make the yogurt and apple cake without eggs, start by leaving all the fresh ingredients out of the fridge for a while: this way you'll ensure the cake is perfectly made as they will all be at room temperature. Then pour the milk into a bowl along with the Greek yogurt 1, stir with a whisk and add granulated sugar 2. Mix thoroughly, then place a sieve on the bowl and sift in the flour 3
stir vigorously to incorporate it, thus avoiding the formation of lumps 4. Then add the baking powder and ground cinnamon 5 and continue to fold them into the mixture 6.
At this point, you can peel the apples and remove the core (you'll get about 10.5 oz of apples). Slice them and cut them into cubes about 3/4 inch 7. As you cut, immediately pour them into the bowl containing the batter to prevent the cubes from darkening 8. Mix everything well with a spatula and pour the mixture into a 9-inch diameter cake pan (if possible, use a springform pan), lined with parchment paper 9.
Use a spatula to level the cake 10 and bake in a preheated static oven at 340°F for about 55 minutes (convection oven is not recommended for this recipe as the cake might dry out too much; if you still prefer to try, the ideal baking is at 320°F for about 45-50 minutes), making sure to do the toothpick test: if it comes out dry, the cake is done. We also recommend, if you see the surface darkening too much, covering the cake with aluminum foil during baking. Remove the yogurt and apple cake without eggs from the oven and let it cool completely before removing from the pan 11. If you like, serve your yogurt and apple cake without eggs with a sprinkle of powdered sugar 12.
