Maltese Orange Yogurt Cake

The loaf is still warm when the brush passes over it, and the top takes on a shining orange glow. Maison Perrotte’s Maltese Orange Jam, slow-cooked in a copper kettle, gives this everyday yogurt cake its bright, intensely citrusy glaze.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (125 g) plain yogurt
