    You can make a sponge without any fat at all-just sugar, flour and eggs. They are best eaten fresh (but will freeze) so if want something that keeps for a few days you do need to add fat.

    Hi, yes you can easily make a cake with oil and yogurt.If you do a quick google,'cake made with oil' brings up quite a few suggestions.I do a lemon drizzle but unfortunately a lot of my cook books are still in storage after moving so I havent got it to hand sorry.
    There is also a thread on here somewhere started by Mr. Bad Example and he does a chocolate yogurt cake made with oil.HTH
    Found this too
