Ingredients
  

  • 3 5-6 oz cups plain yogurts
  • 2 large eggs
  • 200 g granulated sugar
  • 250 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet baking powder
  • 100 ml vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Cake pan (9-inch round or 8-inch square)
  • Wire cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease your cake pan with butter or non-stick spray, dusting with flour.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until pale yellow and foamy (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Spoon in the three yogurts, and then add the flour, baking powder, oil, and vanilla. Gently fold until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
  5. Bake in the center of the oven for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 15 minutes, then carefully turn it out to cool completely.

Notes

For a richer texture, try Greek yogurt or sour cream. Use canola oil or melted butter as oil substitutes. Don't overmix the batter to keep the cake tender, and add a pinch of salt to enhance flavors. Store the cake at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. You can add variations like lemon zest, berries, or chocolate chips for a fun twist. Enjoy!
