Ingredients:
cooking spray
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon rind

2. Coat bottom and sides of an 8-inch loaf pan with cooking spray; dust with 1 tablespoon flour, discarding any excess flour. Set aside.
3. Spoon 1 3/4 cups flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
4. Beat butter, sugar, lemon rind, vanilla, egg, and egg whites with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Add flour mixture, alternately with yogurt and beginning and ending with flour mixture; beat well after each addition. Pour into prepared pan, spreading evenly.
