How to Make Strawberry Sour Cream Cake Low Fat

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) low-fat margarine and 1 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 3 large egg whites one at a time, mixing gently after each addition.
  4. Stir in 1 cup (240ml) low-fat sour cream and set aside.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three additions, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, the zest of 1 lemon, and 1 cup (150g) sliced fresh strawberries.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  9. For the topping: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup (50g) brown sugar, and 1/4 cup (60g) chopped pecans or walnuts. Cut in 1/4 cup (57g) cold low-fat margarine using a pastry blender or your fingers until crumbly.
  10. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the batter.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  12. Let cool completely before serving.
