How to Make Yogurt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease and flour an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 1/2-inch metal loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla extract.
  4. Whisk the wet ingredients until well blended.
  5. Gradually whisk in the dry ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the vegetable oil using a rubber spatula until just incorporated.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Place the loaf pan on a baking sheet (this helps prevent spills).
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake starts to pull away from the sides of the pan.
  10. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  11. Run a knife or offset spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake.
  12. Carefully invert the cake onto the wire rack to cool completely.
  13. Once completely cool, enjoy your delicious Yogurt Cake!
