Blueberry Limoncello Yogurt Ciambellone

Add to ❤ Favorites The cake is fluffy and light with a good hint of lemon and the blueberry make it even more moist. If you serve this to kids, you can skip the extra Limoncello on the top. As for the one inside the cake, I wouldn’t fret too much as the alcohol will evaporate in the oven. Ingredients for 1 round cake pan 125 ml – ½ cup plain yogurt 250 gms – 2 cups plain flour 125 gms – ¾ cup potato flour 80 ml – ⅓ cup Limoncello (plus more to brush the top) 1 sachet yeast for sweets or 3 tsp baking powder 250 gms 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar 60 ml – ¼ cup vegetable oil 3 eggs 1 tsp lemon essence 125 gms – 4.5 oz. blueberries Read the Instructions here
