1/2 cup vegetable oil

3 eggs, at room temperature

Zest of 1 orange

1 tbsp orange juice

1/2 tsp vanilla

2 cups + 2 tbsps flour

1 tbsp baking powder

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter and flour (or spray with baking Pam) a 1.6L round Corningware baking dish approximately 7 3/4" in diameter and 3" deep. Beat eggs and sugar together until light and frothy. Add orange zest. While the mixer is running, drizzle in the vegetable oil, then add the yogurt, vanilla and orange juice. Sift the flour and baking powder together and add to the wet ingredients in three additions. Mix until smooth. Pour into  prepared pan and bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes checking at 45-50 minutes with a cake tester then increase time as needed until the tester comes out clean.
