Ok, OK, there miiiiiiiiiiight have been a teeeeeeeeeny little bit of showing off my cake skills. I seriously had to force myself to hand it over as I really could have eaten the whole thing. A big yes to tasty, moist yet crumbly Semolina Cake with yogurt.
All The Reasons To Love This Semolina Cake
The semolina gives it that lively crumbly texture that is just so perfectly different. It has figs in it. Crumbly cake + figs = perfect cake. It is super easy to make, no mixing butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Nope, not in this cake. It keeps for a few days without becoming dry. You don’t really need syrup with this cake, the figs give it all the moisture you need. And this Semolina Cake needs MINIMAL DECORATION. Is that not just the best thing ever?
Seriously all you need to do is dust the top with some icing sugar and a few figs. Flowers purely optional but oh so pretty. My kind of cake.
How To Make Semolina Cake
Step 1. Mix the dry ingredients together. Step 2. Mix the yoghurt and milk together. Step 3. Add the dry ingredients to the yoghurt mix followed by the melted butter and lemon juice. Step 4. Fold in the chopped figs and transfer the batter into the cake pan and bake Step 5. Let the Semolina cake cool for 10 minutes in the tin before carefully transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
