Grapefruit Pac Man Saves the Day!

I fancied some sweet pink grapefruit the other day but there were only white ones at the market. I chucked half of it into a salad...

...then remembered that I don't really like the taste of white grapefruit at all. Sour, ick!

The other half of the grapefruit was left to sit in the fridge for a couple of days - despite not wanting to eat it, I didn't want to just throw it away.

Then suddenly, out of nowhere...

Grapefruit Pac Man flew in to save the day!

"I turn me into a cake my friend, and you won't taste my sourness at all...

...just lovely tones of citrus, mmm..."

Grapefruit Cake (butter free)

For a 7" sandwich tin (8 slices):

50ml white grapefruit juice (about half a large grapefruit)
2 tsp grapefruit zest
125g greek yogurt
75ml grapeseed oil
1 large egg
75g sugar
175g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt

1) Beat the juice, zest, yogurt, oil, egg and sugar together.
2) In a large bowl, sift in the flour, baking powder and add the salt.
3) Pour the wet mixture in and fold until mixed well.
4) Transfer to a lined sandwich tin and bake at 190 degrees C for 25 minutes.
