Hello everyone, I hope you are all well.

This cake contains no oil or butter, but still it’s soft and airy. Here I’ve used whipped cream which makes the cake quick and easy to make, and the addition of lemon curd and apple makes it fresh and flavorful.

Here is the recipe – enjoy.

Whipped Vanilla Cream Cake

  • 1 3/4 cup (225 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon (15 g) corn starch
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup (230 g) regular sugar
  • 1 1/2 cup (350 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 vanilla bean, split in half lengthways and seeds scraped out (optional)
  • 3 large eggs, at room temperature

Preheat the oven to 375 ˚F (190 ˚C).

Bring out all the ingredients.

You can leave out the vanilla bean here as the lemon and apple will give the cake plenty of flavor.

Sift the flour with the corn starch and baking powder.

Put the sugar and cream into a mixing bowl with the seeds from the vanilla bean (if using). Beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.

Scrape the batter into a lined baking pan, I used an 8 x 12-inch (20 x 30 cm) pan here.

Peel and slice about 4 apples and arrange on top of the lemon curd, I used Pink Lady apples here.

Bake in a 375 ˚F (190 ˚C) oven for about 30 minutes.

Leave to cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes.

Yogurt glaze:

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) yogurt

Put the powdered sugar and yogurt into a bowl and mix well.

Spread over the cooled cake.

  7. Hi, I have just made this cake but instead of apples I used dry freeze strawberries which go back to normal once mixed into cake batter. 
    My children and husband gave it their approval and since they are very picky eaters the outcome is better than expected. The rest has just been taken around friends to finish off. 
    I have just come back from Norway and missed out on your books. (Had a lack of luggage space unfortunately.) 
    Sadly I found out your books aren’t available in England. I have to stick to translating from your webside. 
    Good luck. Lina

  8. Wonderful blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News.
    Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?

    I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Appreciate it
