How to Make Simple Yoghurt Pound Cake
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 4 large egg yolks, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 cup plain yogurt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold about ¼ of the beaten egg whites into the batter to lighten it.
- Fold in the remaining egg whites in two additions, being careful not to overmix.
- Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. (Baking time may vary depending on your oven; start checking at 60 minutes).
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
