Nonfat Yogurt Cake

This guilty-free recipe is good to eat and to serve guests. A quick cake mix will make this cake easier to prepare and the coconut oil gives this cake a special flavor.

Ingredients:
2 cups cake mix
3 eggs
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/4 cup chia seeds gel
1/2 cup nonfat yogurt
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup coconut flakes
1 tsp vanilla extract

 Directions:
Preheat oven to 350° and lightly grease and flour a 9 inch cake pan. In a saucepan, plump the cranberries with 1/3 cup of water over medium heat until the cranberries soak up all the water. Drain and set aside.
In a stand mixer bowl, beat sugar, oil, and chia seeds gel until fluffy. Add eggs and continue to beat the eggs and sugar mixture until combined. Add nonfat yogurt and vanilla. Add flour and beat with medium speed until all combined. Fold in the cranberries. Pour into the prepared cake pan and sprinkle with coconut flakes on top. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Serve with simple frosting or any kind of jam.
