1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease a 9 inch round springform pan and line the bottom with waxed paper.

3. In a separate bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
4. Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, then add the yogurt, and stir until smooth. Spoon the batter into prepared pan and smooth the surface.
