Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8-inch round cake pan.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until no lumps remain.
- In a separate bowl, whip the egg whites until glossy and stiff peaks form, about 4-5 minutes.
- Gently fold the yogurt, vanilla extract, and lemon zest into the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter using a spatula.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top evenly.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and springy when touched.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
For best results, use room temperature egg whites and avoid overmixing when folding in the whipped egg whites. Servings can be enhanced with powdered sugar or fresh berries on top before serving.
