  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/2 Cantaloupe Melon pealed and cubed

Instructions
 

  • Mix flour, baking powder and baking soda together in a medium bowl with a pinch of salt. In a second bigger bowl whisk together (you can use a hand mixer) sugar, eggs, yoghurt, oil, vanilla extract and cinnamon until all ingredients combine into a smooth batter.
  • While still whisking the butter add flour mixture gradually until combined. Pour the butter into the cake form laid with parchment paper. I used a 32x22, 5 cm deep cake tin. Align the top of the cake, place pieces of the cantaloupe on top of the cake.
  • Bake for around 30 to 40 min in 190C. Let it cool before serving, Dust with icing sugar and enjoy.
