  1. This was great. I did not do any of the fat-reducing techniques and I used dried blueberries. It did get pretty dark, so I recommend a lower oven shelf or a sheet of aluminum foil over it for at least 1/2 the cooking time. Doubled it, it made it two really chubby loaves (using the long and thin European style loaf-pans) and glazed it with the juice of two lemons mixed with 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup limoncello. I originally made it as a 'thank you' gift, but in the end decided it was too good to give away! LOL. I bought him a bottle of wine instead.
     
  2. So good but tastes better with 0%Greek yogurt and lemon juice. And I didn't coat the blueberries with flour I folded them into the batter.
     
  3. i was all out of yogurt so I used mayonaise, halfing the asked portions... that didnt change a thing on this cake,, was excellant. moist tender and OMG GOOD. Thank you so much for posting..
     
  4. I made this for a family gathering. I used Greek yogurt, and lemon flavoring added about 1 tsp of orange rind. I used 4 eggs. I also put orange rind w/ powered sugar (1/2) bag and 2 ozs. Cream cheese into a nice frosting w/ almond milk. Killer! I used Pam on an Angel Food Cake Pan and sugared the bottom, sides and tube. Baked it for 70 min. Oven turned off left in for 15 extra min.
     
  5. Really good! Used frozen wild blueberries, stonyfield farms lemon yogurt, regular butter and since my eggs were huge, omitted the extra egg white. Excellent cake with a light and moist texture. Will make again! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

  1. Instead of lemon yogurt I used 0% milk fat Greek yogurt with 2-5 tbsp lemon juice
