Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.

- In another bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, vegetable oil, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just mixed, being careful not to overmix; some lumps are okay.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- Then transfer it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
