# Składniki:

For the cake

01 - 1 1/2 cups (150 g) oat flour
02 - 2 teaspoons baking powder
03 - 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
04 - 2 large eggs
05 - 3/4 cup (180 g) thick Greek yogurt or skyr
06 - 1/2 cup (125 g) unsweetened applesauce
07 - 1/2 cup (90 g) erythritol or granulated sugar
08 - 2 tablespoons neutral oil
09 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 - 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
11 - 1 cup (140 g) mixed berries, fresh or frozen

For the yogurt cream

12 - 1/2 cup (120 g) thick Greek yogurt or skyr
13 - 3 oz (85 g) light cream cheese, softened
14 - 2 tablespoons powdered erythritol or powdered sugar
15 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
16 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice

# Przygotowanie:

01 - Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment, leaving overhang for easy lifting.
02 - Whisk oat flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl until evenly combined.
03 - In a large bowl, whisk eggs, Greek yogurt, applesauce, sweetener, oil, vanilla, and lemon zest until smooth.
04 - Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold gently until just combined. Let the batter stand for 3 minutes so the oat flour hydrates.
05 - Fold in three quarters of the berries. Spread the batter in the pan, scatter the remaining berries on top, and bake for 28-32 minutes until the center springs back and a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
06 - Cool the cake completely. Beat the yogurt cream ingredients until smooth, spread over the cake, and chill for at least 30 minutes before slicing.

# Uwagi:

01 - Best served chilled for clean slices and a creamier texture.
02 - Use certified gluten-free oat flour if baking for someone avoiding gluten.
03 - Nutrition is an estimate per slice when cut into 8 servings with erythritol.
