Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
Combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, and kosher salt in a bowl with a spatula to get a flour mixture.
Crack eggs in a bowl and whisk. Put the lemon zest, yogurt, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and vanilla extract in the bowl. Add the flour mixture to the bowl and mix with a spatula. Then, add vegetable oil and whisk to get a batter.
Preheat the oven to 350°F for 12-15 minutes.
Transfer the batter to the loaf pan, put it in the oven, and bake for 50 minutes.
Heat a pan, add a third cup of lemon juice and a third cup of granulated sugar. Stir with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes to get lemon-sugar syrup.
