Nutritional values

That's how asparagus tastes to the kids! In addition, asparagus is not only nice and crunchy here, it also contains important metabolic vitamins of the B group and fiber for digestion. An ideal complement to this is the yogurt oil dough, which also provides plenty of protein.

The yogurt oil dough is the quick and reliable alternative to yeast dough. To prevent the dough from becoming too sour, it is best to use fresh yogurt. You can use any tasteless oil, only solid fat like margarine is not suitable.

Preparation

Kitchen utensils

2 Bowls, 1 Tablespoon, 1 Teaspoon, 1 Hand mixer, 1 Baking sheet, 1 Parchment paper, 1 Plastic wrap, 1 Rolling pin, 1 Fork, 1 deep bowl, 1 Whisk, 1 Cutting board, 1 Peeler, 1 Small knife, 1 Dough scraper

Preparation steps

1.
Asparagus Cake preparation step 1

Rinse the asparagus and peel the lower third from the stalks. Cross cut the stalks into pieces 1 1/4 inches long.

2.
Asparagus Cake preparation step 2

Place the flour in a bowl, along with 9 ounces of yogurt, the oil and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Knead the dough with the dough hook of a hand mixer until smooth. If the dough is too firm, add some more water if necessary, approximately 1/4-1/2 cup.

3.
Asparagus Cake preparation step 3

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the dough evenly between 2 layers of plastic wrap with a rolling pin and then remove the dough from the plastic wrap and place the dough on the parchment paper. Prick the dough with a fork several times and bake in preheated oven at 400°F.

4.
Asparagus Cake preparation step 4

While the dough is baking, separate the eggs. Mix the egg yolks, remaining yogurt and cream cheese together. Add salt and pepper and stir until smooth with a hand mixer. 

5.
Asparagus Cake preparation step 5

In a separate bowl, mix the egg whites with 1 pinch of salt and beat on high with a hand mixer until stiff. Using a whisk, fold the stiff egg white mixture into the egg yolk mixture. Spread the mixture on the pre-baked dough. On top of the mixture, spread the asparagus pieces evenly over the cake. Place the cake back in the oven for 35 minutes. Allow to cool and then serve.
