This delicious yogurt cake recipe creates a moist, fluffy, and aromatic dessert that’s perfect for breakfast or teatime. Made with simple ingredients like natural yogurt, orange zest, and lightly whipped egg whites, it achieves a soft texture and delicate citrus flavor. Start by beating egg yolks with sugar until creamy, then blend in yogurt, oil, and zest. Add sifted flour and baking powder, folding gently to keep the batter airy. Finally, incorporate whipped egg whites for that irresistible lightness. Bake at 180°C (355°F) for 25–30 minutes until golden and fragrant. The result is a golden, tender cake that pairs beautifully with coffee or a drizzle of honey.
