Ingredients

• 1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder ()
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup butter (room temperature, plus more for baking dish)
• ¾ cup cane sugar
• 2 eggs (room temperature)

   Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease an 8-inch round baking pan with butter.

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

3. 3

   In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, and sugar for 3-5 minutes or until combined, scraping down the sides as needed. Add the eggs one at a time and the vanilla extract. Add the Greek yogurt and orange zest.
