Yogurt Conversion: Cups to Grams

Yogurt is fermented milk with a creamy, tangy flavour. In baking, it works similarly to sour cream — its acidity tenderises gluten, activates baking soda, and adds moisture. Greek yogurt is thicker and higher in protein, making it an excellent substitute in many recipes. Plain, full-fat yogurt gives the best results.
