Bolo de Iogurte, or yogurt cake, is a moist, flavorful dessert originating from Portuguese cuisine. This simple cake is prepared using common ingredients such as plain yogurt, eggs, sugar, flour, oil, and baking powder. The yogurt contributes to its soft texture and tangy flavor, making it a popular treat at teatime or as a light dessert. While it’s a comfort food, its nutritional profile varies based on preparation. Yogurt adds a source of protein and calcium, while eggs provide essential nutrients like vitamins D and B12. However, the refined sugar and white flour used in traditional recipes contribute to higher carbohydrate content, making it less suitable for those seeking low-glycemic options. Health-conscious versions can include whole wheat flour or reduced sugar to boost fiber and minimize empty calories. Whether served plain or with a dusting of powdered sugar, Bolo de Iogurte is a versatile and beloved dish.
