How to Make Yogurt Marmalade Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup plain yogurt, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, and 1/2 cup canola oil until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup marmalade and 1/4 cup plain yogurt.
  8. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the marmalade is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  9. Once the cake is completely cool, pour the glaze evenly over the top, allowing it to drizzle down the sides.
