About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 4 2/5 oz yogurt
- 4 2/5 oz flour
- 4 2/5 oz sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 356°F (350°F).
- 2Grease a loaf pan or small baking tin with butter or oil, then set aside.
- 3In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the yogurt, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon zest until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- 4Sift the flour and baking powder together to incorporate air and remove lumps.
- 5Fold the sifted flour mixture into the wet ingredients gently, mixing only until just combined; avoid over‑mixing to keep the cake tender.
- 6Transfer the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- 7Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- 8Remove the cake from the oven and let it rest in the pan for 10 minutes to set.
- 9After 10 minutes, turn the cake out onto a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing.
- 10Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or with a dollop of fresh fruit jam if desired.
