Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.
- Beat the egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form, about 5–7 minutes.
- Mix the yogurt, vanilla extract, and lemon zest into the dry ingredients until just incorporated.
- Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the batter using a rubber spatula.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool the cake in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Ensure egg whites are at room temperature before whipping for the best volume. Dust with powdered sugar or serve with fresh berries for an elegant touch.
