Related to Plain Yoghurt
Greek Yoghurt
Greek yoghurt is strained, so it is thicker, higher in protein, and barely heavier (260 g vs 258 g per cup). Swap straight into cakes and quick breads; for dressings, marinades, or anything pourable, thin it with a splash of milk to match plain yoghurt's looser texture. See our Greek Yoghurt converter.
Sour Cream
Sour cream is cultured cream with more fat, so it bakes richer and tastes milder than yoghurt's sharper tang. They weigh almost the same (250 g vs 258 g per cup), so swap 1:1 in cakes, dips, and dressings for a denser, creamier result. See our Sour Cream converter.
Buttermilk
Buttermilk brings the same lactic tang and activates baking soda the same way, but it is thinner and pourable (255 g vs 258 g per cup). Best in pancakes, scones, and quick breads; reduce other liquid slightly or stir milk into the yoghurt to match its texture. See our Buttermilk converter.
Cream Cheese
Cream cheese is denser and richer than plain yoghurt (230 g vs 258 g per cup). Yoghurt won't hold a piped shape, so swap with care: it works in batters and dressings but not in stiff frostings or no-bake cheesecake fillings. See cream cheese in teaspoons.
