The recipe of the cake of the seven jars

Let's start from basic recipe which is the simplest of all the cake recipes you'll find around.
The ingredients are measured in 125g yogurt jars and I'm:
1 jar of yogurt
3 jars of flour 00
2 jars of sugar
1 jar of seed oil
1 sachet of baking powder
3 eggs

First empty the jar of yogurt in a container, wash it and dry it.
Add the eggs, sugar and oil to the yoghurt first and then the rest, stirring with a hand whisk or a planetary if you want to mix the mixture well.
The more you assemble it the more the cake will be high and soft and if you sift the flour with the baking powder you will get an even better consistency of course. If you have time you can also separate egg yolks and egg whites and whip the egg whites until stiff.
The cake bake for about 30 minutes in a static oven at 180 ° and you can also prepare a plumcake or muffins with the same mixture.

All tastes of yogurt

The funny thing about this cake is that you can play with tastes of yogurt to always give a different look and taste to your cake. If for example you use a strawberry yogurt you can add fresh strawberries in pieces; if you use a berry yogurt you can add blackberries and blueberries; if you use a pistachio yogurt you can stuff the cake with the pistachio cream.
But now we want to offer you 7 recipes that will really turn your simple cake base into 7 jars a unique and special cake.

Cake with seven coconut jars
To prepare it, use only two 00 flour jars and add 2 of coconut flour.
Obviously to make it even more special choose a coconut yogurt particularly good and, if you're super gluttonous, once the cake is ready let it cool and then brush it with hazelnut cream and decorate it with coconut flour.

Cake seven chocolate jars
To prepare it, replace a jar of flour with one of bitter cocoa and add in the mixture also some drops of chocolate previously frozen or floured and well sifted so during cooking they will not fall to the bottom.
You can use a whole Greek yogurt and in this case use the same jar as a measuring spoon or even a 250 g ricotta cheese always in a jar. You will get a slightly bigger cake.

Cake seven jars with caramelized bananas
A cake that spills and has a very special cooking.
First of all, cut two or three bananas in length or in rounds and then cook them in a pan with three tablespoons of brown sugar and a knob of butter.
Arrange them still warm on the bottom of a well buttered cake tin and cover with the raw cake mixture. Bake in the oven and then flip the cake when it is still hot so the caramel will not stick.
You can use a banana yogurt in the dough and you can replace the bananas with apples for a soft version of the tarte tatin. Even pineapple is a good alternative!

Cake with seven jars for pears and hazelnuts
In this recipe sweet white yogurt is good, but also the hazelnut one if you find it.
Add to all the ingredients a jar of chopped hazelnuts and then decorated with slices of pear.
We suggest to abound with pears, both in the dough and in the decoration and if you want to add a pinch of cinnamon for a spicy note that warms.

This is the perfect cake for family celebrations and birthdays because children like it so much.
Prepare the base of the cake seven jars and then cut it in half once cold.
