- Plain yogurt: 1 cup (full-fat or Greek)
- Eggs: 3 large
- Vegetable oil: 1/2 cup
- Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
- Baking soda: 1/2 teaspoon
- Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and baking soda.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
- Step 4: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Step 5: Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and spread evenly.

Notes
- To keep your cake moist, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- A quick microwave for 15-20 seconds will bring back that fresh-baked warmth and aroma.
- This cake is lovely served simply with a dusting of powdered sugar or a dollop of fresh berries and whipped cream.
- For extra fluffiness, ensure your eggs are at room temperature before mixing the wet ingredients.
