Ingredients:

1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour / plaun flour

1 cup plain yogurt

1 cup granulated sugar / caster sugar

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 1/4 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup cooking oil

1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

Directions:

1. In a bowl sieve the all-purpose flour. Set aside.

2. Whisk the yogurt smooth and add sugar. Whip the two together until the sugar dissolves completely (you can feel no more crystals while whisking).

3. Add baking powder, baking soda to the whipped yogurt and mix well. Set aside for about 5 mins and allow the mixture to rise.

4. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a cake pan and line it with a parchment paper. (easy to get the cake out later). Set aside.

5. Add vanilla extract and cooking oil and mix. (The bubbles formed in the previous step will break. Your cake won’t turn hard. Continue).

6. Add the all-purpose flour in 2-3 batches and make sure the previous batch is folded in well into the yogurt mixture before adding the next one. Whisk until the batter is smooth and thick Pour the batter into the prepared cake tin and pat it on the counter to break any air bubbles.

7. Bake for 40 min or till a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool in tin on a wire rack for at least 15 min. Invert the pan onto a plate. Remove the parchment paper. Slice it up and enjoy the warm cake with a cup of coffee.

Bon Appetit!
