In another large bowl, place the sugar and lemon zest and use your fingers to rub them together until well blended and fragrant. Add the eggs, oil, yogurt, and vanilla, and whisk to combine.

Transfer the batter into the prepared pan, smooth out the top, and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. If necessary, tent the pan with foil after 45 minutes to prevent the top from browning too much.
