Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease an 8-inch round cake pan (2 inches high) with baking spray. Use a paper towel to evenly spread the spray, and then line the bottom with parchment paper, lightly greasing it as well. Set aside.
  2. In a medium-large bowl, whisk together the yogurt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fully combined.
  3. Add the eggs and continue whisking until smooth.
  4. Stir in the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and cloves. Mix until fully combined.
  5. Gradually add in the sunflower oil, mixing until smooth (it may appear a little separated at first, but continue stirring).
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the cake is springy to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Avoid overbaking.
  7. Let the cake cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Once cooled, turn it out of the pan and allow it to cool completely.
  8. For the glaze, whisk together the maple syrup, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
  9. Using a pastry brush, gently apply the glaze in layers over the cake. Repeat until the glaze is fully absorbed. Some glaze may drip off, but most will soak into the cake.
  10. Once cooled, top with a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.
  11. Details: This cinnamon-spiced cake is perfect for any occasion, offering a delicate sweetness and a moist texture, enhanced by a rich maple glaze that soaks in beautifully.
