Poppy Seed Yogurt Braid

Preheat the oven to 150 °C fan (175 °C top/bottom heat) and thoroughly grease the braid pan.

Mix the flour with the baking powder in a bowl.

In a large mixing bowl, lightly beat the egg, then stir in the sugar, oil, poppy seed baking mix and natural yogurt.

Gently fold in the flour–baking powder mixture just until a smooth batter forms.

Pour the batter into the prepared braid pan and smooth the surface.

Bake the braid for about 45–50 minutes, until golden.

Let the braid rest in the pan for about 10 minutes, then turn it out and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Dust the cooled poppy seed yogurt braid with powdered sugar before serving.
