Steps

STEP 1

Prepare the Dry Ingredients:

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

STEP 2

Prepare the Wet Ingredients:

In a separate bowl, whisk the melted butter, coconut sugar, Greek yogurt, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and well incorporated.

STEP 3

Combine Ingredients:

Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Pour in the hot brewed coffee and mix until the batter is smooth and lump-free.

Prepare for Baking:

Lightly grease a cake pan (18-26 cm in diameter) with a little oil. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

STEP 5

Bake the Cake:

Preheat your oven to 170 C (convection setting). Once preheated, bake the cake between 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
