Preparation

  3. In a deep bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and the vanilla powder until well combined.
  4. Add sugar to the egg mixture and beat until creamy and doubled in volume.
  5. Gradually add oil, stirring constantly until the mixture is uniform.
  6. Incorporate milk and yogurt, continuing to beat until well combined.
  7. Sift the flour and baking powder together, then fold this mixture into the wet ingredients until smooth.

  2. Bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
