Steps for Yogurt Bundt Cake with Sugar Sprinkles
Begin by beating the eggs with the sugar, grated lemon zest, and vanilla for about 5 minutes at high speed with an electric whisk. You should achieve a frothy, light-colored mixture that has tripled in volume. Then, while still beating with the whisks, add the oil in a thin stream, followed by the yogurt. Mix well. You will obtain a fairly liquid cream.
Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt, and add them all at once to the mixture; mix at low speed so that the batter gains consistency. To have a perfect bundt cake, the batter should not be too liquid, nor too thick. Pour it into a 9.5-inch diameter bundt cake pan, greased and floured, or lined with parchment paper. Decorate the surface with sugar sprinkles
Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F for about 40 minutes. Do not open the oven for the first half hour or until it has risen and a nice golden crust has formed on the cake. Use the toothpick test to ensure the inside is perfectly dry. Remove from oven and let cool before placing it on a wire rack or serving plate and slicing it. Dust with powdered sugar if desired
Storage, Variants of Yogurt Bundt Cake with Sugar Sprinkles
The bundt cake keeps quite well for 3/4 days at room temperature, preferably stored under a cake dome. You can add chocolate chips to the batter if you want to make it tastier.
The yogurt bundt cake is a perfect base for many variations. You can add chocolate chips, nuts, grated lemon or orange peel to the batter. For an extra indulgence, you can glaze the bundt cake with a simple lemon or chocolate glaze.
