- 3 extra-large eggs
- Zest of 3 lemons
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

· Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an round cake pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper if you do not have a non stick pan.
· Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt into 1 bowl.
· In another bowl, whisk together the yogurt, 1 cup sugar, the eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla.
· Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
· With a rubber spatula, fold the olive oil into the batter, making sure it's all incorporated.
· Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
· When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully place on a baking rack over a sheet pan. |
