Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, eggs, applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.

  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.

  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread it out evenly.

  6. Arrange the mixed fresh fruits on top of the batter in a decorative pattern, covering the surface evenly.

  7. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  9. Once the cake has cooled, lightly dust the top with powdered sugar for a finishing touch.

  10. Slice the Low-Fat Fruit Basket Cake and serve it at room temperature for a delightful, guilt-free treat.
