Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and prepare a 9-inch round cake pan with cooking spray and parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk 3 large eggs until frothy. Add 1 cup of full-fat Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of honey, and the juice of 2 lemons, mixing until smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Ensure there are no clumps for even leavening in the cake.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, folding gently with a spatula until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35–40 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  6. Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
