Every lockdown we've made this cake several times. Easy to make with the kids. We used kalo vanilla bean yoghurt and it turned out delicious. Was delicious hot from the oven and just as good the next day from the fridge. Great recipe!

This recipe was so easy. And it was a huge hit with the family.
Preheat oven to 170ºC bake. Grease a 20cm round spring-form (or removable base) cake tin and line with baking paper.
Cream the Chelsea Caster Sugar, butter and lemon zest until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and mix briefly to combine.
Sift in the flour and baking powder. Mix briefly, then add the yoghurt and mix until well combined.
Pour into prepared tin and bake for 45 minutes, until cake springs back when lightly pressed on top, and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Leave to cool in tin for 15 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack.
Serve warm or at room temperature, drizzled with lemon syrup, with a dollop of whipped cream or yoghurt.
Lemon Syrup While the cake cooks, place the lemon juice and Chelsea Caster Sugar in small saucepan and heat gently without stirring, until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat. Can be used warm or cool.
