For 8 portions

Ingredients

2 eggs
1 and ½ cups sugar
½ cup oil
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ packet baking powder
2 vanilla sugars
1 large plain yogurt (approx. 200 g)
zest of one lemon
1 jar of canned cherries (or fresh cherries)

Preparation procedure

Preheat the oven to 180 °C.
Drain the syrup from the compote and let the cherries drain. If using fresh cherries, pit them.
In a larger bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until pale and frothy.
Add the oil, yogurt and lemon zest, mix everything thoroughly.
Sift the flour with the baking powder into the mixture and add the vanilla sugars. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
Grease the baking tray (approx. 30 × 20 cm) with butter and dust with flour or coconut.
Pour the batter onto the tray and spread it evenly.
Arrange the cherries on the batter.
Bake the cake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, until the surface turns golden.
After cooling, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve.
