The beauty of this is its ease: whisk dry ingredients together. Work zest into sugar, add eggs, yogurt, then oil and bake. Delicious aroma floating from the oven. Mmm.
But. What's up with the way my cake rose? Kind of like a bridge flat, even a descending approach, big arch, then off again with a flat, even descending approach..not pretty. And, to top it off, it browned up way too quickly, perhaps the fault of dark metal pan?
Because this is such a simple (and very popular recipe in this house) recipe, I'll make it again trying a different pan and, perhaps a lower temp. The crust was a bit tough, but the crumb was a lovely texture. The almonds lend a moist richness to the the loaf that is wonderful.

I actually love how browned your loaf turned out! It looks great!
I think that pink grapefruit marmalade sounds absolutely perfect! Gorgeous cake!
Oh, I bet the grapefruit flavor was delicious with the lemon! My cake rose a little strangely, too, but it still tasted good :-)
Pink grapefruit marmalade. What a great idea.
I used orange.

I love a good loaf cake! Yours looks great, esp with the grapefruit marmalade
Pink grapefruit marmalade sounds like a wonderful substitution! I think your cake looks great!
The little bits of almond showing in the loaf make that loaf look just perfect. Lucky you to even find marmalade. I ended up making mine - but it was fun, and good. Your loaf looks great.
Your cake looks wonderful. Pink grapefruit sounds delicious.
I love how your loaf turned out, and that grapefruit marmalade sounds delicious (and I don't even like marmalade!) :)
Great job!
Im so glad you enjoyed this recipe. I loved the smell while it was baking! I need to find a candle that smells that good!
I couldn't find the lemon marmalade either but pink grapefruit marmalade instead sounds like a lovely idea! I went with whipped cream, which was good too! Great job on your cake!
