Ingredients

For 8 servings
  • 500 g Greek yoghurt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 5 tbsp cornflour
  • 150 g fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • 70–80 g honey or maple syrup optional

Step by step

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
  2. Put the Greek yoghurt, eggs, cornflour, vanilla and sweetener, if using, in a large bowl.
  3. Whisk until completely smooth, with no lumps.
  4. Pour the mixture into a springform tin lined with baking paper.
  5. Scatter the blueberries over the surface.
  6. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden and the middle is set but still has a slight wobble.
  7. Leave to cool completely at room temperature.
  8. Chill for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight for a firmer texture.
  9. Carefully release it from the tin and move it to a plate.
