I've made Ina Garten's lemon yogurt cake before. It's so easy and so tasty. I like that this cake is tart due to the lemon zest, lemon juice, and yogurt. The original recipe calls for 1 c of plain yogurt. This time around I substituted plain yogurt using plain, Greek yogurt instead. This made the cake more dense, but still just as delicious as I remember it. I love it! I think you will, too.

Ina Garten's recipe is here. For this recipe, preheat your oven to 350*. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in 1 bowl. In another bowl, whisk the yogurt, 1 c of sugar, eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Fold the vegetable oil into the batter. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan. Bake for about 50 minutes.

Then cook 1/3 cup of lemon juice and 1/3 cup of sugar in a small pan until the sugar dissolves. When the cake is done, allow it to cool for 10 minutes. While the cake is still warm, pour the lemon-sugar mixture on the cake and let it soak. For the glaze, combine confectioners' sugar and lemon juice and drizzle over the cake.

I enjoy citrusy desserts. Do you?
