Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (75g) unsweetened cocoa powder (preferably Dutch-processed)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon powdered stevia (adjust to taste)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup (120g) plain unsweetened Greek yogurt (can substitute with dairy-free yogurt)
  • ¾ cup (180ml) unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (60ml) vegetable oil (can substitute with melted coconut oil)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch round cake pan and line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the powdered stevia evenly to avoid clumps.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add Greek yogurt, almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing; a few small lumps are okay.
  5. Scrape the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the surface. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release air bubbles.
  6. Bake for 30–35 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Start checking at 28 minutes to avoid overbaking.
  7. Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Use powdered stevia carefully to avoid bitterness; start with small amounts and adjust to taste. Room temperature eggs blend better and help the cake rise evenly. Avoid overmixing to keep the cake tender. Use an oven thermometer if your oven temperature is unreliable. Let the cake cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling. For vegan adaptation, replace eggs with flax eggs and use dairy-free yogurt and plant milk. Nut-free version can be made by substituting almond milk with oat or rice milk.
