Ingredients for the cake:
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup olive oil or vegetable oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla, optional (I did not have vanilla so I skipped this and they were still sweet and delicious)
- 1 teaspoon salt, optional (Since I didn’t have vanilla, I also skipped the salt)
- Chocolate chips or fruit mix in to taste
Ingredients for the coating:
- White Almond Bark
- Coconut or Olive Oil
- Food Coloring (if you want to skip food coloring you could use mashed up strawberries or blueberries in the almond bark to get color and extra flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Flour or butter line your mini cake trays, small cake pan, or loaf pan.
- Mix all the cake ingredients except for the mix-ins together.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan and bake for 25-35 minutes, until lightly browned on top and an inserted toothpick or cake tester comes out clean.
- Once the cakes are slightly cooled cut off the “muffin tops” and let rest for 20 minutes.
- While resting melt your almond bark and color with food coloring or fruit dyes.
- Dip your cooled cakes into the melted almond bark and decorate with sprinkles or fruit.
- Let the dipped cakes cool and harden.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Don’t throw away the muffin tops! Delicious on their own with a glass of milk or crumbled up and repurposed into cake pops.
