with yogurt

Remove the stems from the currants, wash, drain, and set aside. Cream the softened butter with the sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt in a food processor until very fluffy. Then beat in the eggs, one at a time, and stir in the lemon flavoring. Continue beating until a creamy consistency is reached. Mix the sifted flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and baking soda, then stir them alternately with the yogurt into the foam mixture. Grease a Bundt cake pan and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. Pour in about 2/3 of the batter, spread the drained, floured berries on top, and cover with the remaining batter. Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 180°C (top/bottom heat) for 1 1/4 hours until golden brown (test with a skewer). After baking, open the oven door and let the cake rest for a while. Then let it cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes and turn out. Cover with powdered sugar and lemon glaze and garnish with a few freshly picked currant stems. It can also be dusted with powdered sugar.
