- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 cup fat-free plain yogurt
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 5 tablespoons grated grapefruit zest
- 1/4 cup agave nectar or honey
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 to 3 teaspoons grapefruit juice

- Preheat oven to 350°. Whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Combine next 7 ingredients. Gradually stir flour mixture into yogurt mixture, then pour into a 9-in. round baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 25-30 minutes.
