Lemon Poppy Seed Yogurt Cake

The bright, lemony flavor in this easy cake is addictive.

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray and flour a 10-inch tube pan or large loaf pan (5" x 10").
In a small bowl whisk together yogurt, eggs, vanilla, lemon zest and poppy seeds.
In a large bowl combine sugar, flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in yogurt mixture.
Add oil and stir until combined.
Spread batter in prepared pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, until top springs back or a tester inserted in cake comes out clean.
Cool in pan for 10 minutes on a metal rack, then turn cake out of pan onto rack.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat lemon juice and sugar until sugar is dissolved.
Pierce top and sides of cake with toothpick or fork and pour juice over cake.
