Step 1
1. Make the cake. Preheat the oven to 175 degrees. Grease a round cake pan with butter and line it with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together yogurt, vegetable oil, sugar, lime zest, and juice. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together directly over the wet mixture. Stir with a spoon.

Using a knife, remove the cake from the pan onto a serving plate. If using a springform pan, release the sides. Otherwise, invert the cake onto a plate, then turn it again onto the serving dish. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature.
