Comments

Smooth, airy and full of fruit. Cherry sponge cake is a summer classic. We've made this fit version with Greek yoghurt, which keeps the perfect texture but enhances the nutrients. It's a perfect treat with your coffee, after‑lunch dessert or even a breakfast that everyone will love. Quick prep, clean ingredients and amazing flavour.🍒

If you have different fruit you need to use, don't hesitate to add it. Strawberries, raspberries, currants, or apricots work great.
