• White chocolate-1/4 cup
• Castor sugar-3 to 4 tsp

Instructions

 

Dry ingredients

• Add the cake flour in to a mixing bowl.
• Add baking powder.
• Add salt.
• Mix well until everything blends together. Make sure there are no lumps formed.

Wet ingredients

• Separate the egg yolks and whites and keep aside.
• Add yogurt in a bowl.

• Use a hand blender/beater to blend the sugar until it dissolves thoroughly.
• Add egg yolks one by one and beat well.
• Beat the egg whites separately. Beat until it is frothy and fluffy. And keep aside until when it is required.
• Add pineapple essence/vanilla essence and mix well.

Cake Batter

• Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
• Add in small portions to avoid any forming of lumps.
• Break the lumps if any formed.
• Add the chopped pineapple chunks.
• Add the pineapple juice.
• Mix everything. Mix gently and fold the batter. Avoid rigorous mixing to avoid the flattening of the cake.
• Add the egg whites. Mix in one direction and fold the batter.
• Pour the batter into a loaf pan or any baking pan.
• Bake for 22 to 25 minutes for 170 C in a preheated oven.
• When the cake is ready, leave it for 10 minutes until it is cool down.

Yogurt sauce

• Add yoghurt in mixing bowl.
• Beat the yoghurt using a hand blender.

• Mix until the sugar dissolves thoroughly.
• Melt the white chocolate compound.
• Add the melted chocolate into the yogurt mixture.
• Cut the cake into desired size.
• Pour the yoghurt mixture on top of the cake and serve.
• Pineapple cake is ready now.

Notes

• Use plain, flavourless yogurt. Don’t use curd or sour yogurt for this recipe. Greek yogurt is the best option because of its thick and creamy texture.
• Beat the egg white separately for a fluffy cake.
• The yogurt will maintain the moisture in the cake.
• I am using yoghurt which already contains sugar. So I reduced the quantity of sugar I add.
• Melt the white chocolate in a microwave before using it.
