Servings: persons

1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 eggs
1 tablespoon grated grapefruit zest
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup vegetable oil (or olive oil for a fruitier tasting cake)
1/3 cup freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup creme fraiche
1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1
Preheat the oven to 350u00b0F. Grease an 8 1/2 by 4 1/4 by 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Line the bottom with parchment paper. Grease and flour the pan.
2
Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in bowl.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the yogurt, creme fraiche, milk, 1 cup sugar, the eggs, grapefruit zest, and vanilla.
4
Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Fold the vegetable oil into the batter, making sure it's all incorporated.
5
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean. It may take closer to an hour but check at 50 minutes.
6
Right before the cake is ready, cook the 1/3 cup grapefruit juice and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar in a small saucepan or skillet over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear. Set aside.
7
When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully place on a baking rack over a sheet pan. While the cake is still warm, poke tiny holes into the cake using a skewer or chopstick and pour the grapefruit-sugar mixture all over the cake and allow it to soak in. Cool.
