I often cut either the oil or butter in half and replace with yogurt in cakes, muffins and some other baked goods. It's a very easy way to cut the fat and calories without sacrificing taste or texture. Here we go;
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 cup sugar
4 eggs
zest from 4 small oranges
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup orange juice
GLAZE:
1 cup icing sugar
4 teaspoons orange juice
In a mixing bowl, cream butter and yogurt until smoth and creamy. Add sugar and beat until fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then add the orange zest and vanilla. Combine flour and baking powder; add to creamed mixture alternately with orange juice.Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
