Whole Kumquat Cake with Greek Yogurt
I am always very excited to visit my home in Crete because my Mom has a beautiful Kumquat tree. I know many do not care for that fruit much but I love it. The fruits are always so tasty and beautiful.
This recipe is super easy to make and very fragrant, as the clean kumquats, free of peeps are blended into a light purée.
Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
As always, you will find the Step-by-Step Video below the recipe.

Whole Kumquat Cake with Greek Yogurt
My Mom's Kumquat tree is full of fruits this year. Instead of making jam like I usually do, I made a cake and it turned out incredible!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 8 Tbsp (115 g) butter (Melted)
- 12 oz (340 g) kumquats
- 1 cup (120 g) confectioners Sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup (100 g) Greek yogurt
- 1 1/4 cup (155 g) all-purpose flour
- 1/2 Tbsp (6 g) baking powder
- 1/3 cup (40 g) almond flour
Instructions
- Place your Medium Round Flexipan® Mold on the top of your Medium perforated baking sheet. Set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C.
KUMQUAT CAKE PREPARATION
- Place butter in a small sauce pan and heat on low until melted. Set aside.
- Wash and pat dry your kumquats. Slice them in halves and remove the seeds. Then, gently blend them on a purée mode to keep some texture.
- In your mixing bowl, whisk the kumquat purée with the confectioners sugar together. Then, taste if the sweetness is to your liking (Depending on how ripe the fruits are, you may need to sweeten accordingly. Add a tablespoon of confectioners sugar at a time). Whisk in the eggs, Greek yogurt and the cooled melted butter. Fold the all-purpose flour, baking powder and almond flour.
BAKE!
- Bake for 40 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cake from 35min). It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Once your kumquat cake is out of the oven, let it cool down for about 10min. Then, Unmold and pour the rest of the sirop over. Serve and enjoy! Bon appétit!
