Mix together all ingredients in a large bowl. Preheat the oven to 180° C (350° F), line the bottom of a round 25-cm (10-inch) cake pan with parchment paper and grease the sides. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean.

What a brilliant recipe! It was in the oven for about 10 mins longer than suggested but WOW what a result. Thanks.
Cooking time seems way too short (typo?!). My 2/3rd version in 20cm tin needed 55/60 minutes but it looks lovely!
I love this recipe because it is easy to prepare and it tastes great. My family loves it. I find that when you use a bundt pan rather than a round pan the batter is cooked more evenly because the flow of hot air helps cook the center.
This recipe can also be used to make a marble cake. I tried it this afternoon as an experiment, and gave it 55 minutes with the thermostat on 3. After I prepared the batter, I separated it in two, and added 1 1/2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa to one half, left the other half as is, and poured the two kinds of batter into a bundt pan using two ladles.
A brilliant recipe for using slightly out of date yogurts you find in the fridge ....
Wow! I've just made this in 2 tins and sandwiched together with jam. Really great and moist. Will definitely be making this again. X
