Put the eggs and sugar in a bowl 4 and beat with electric whisks 5. When the mixture becomes light and frothy, pour in the oil in a thin stream 6.
Add the yogurt 7 and continue to beat to combine everything. In a separate bowl, sift the flour with the baking powder and salt 8, add the rice flour 9 and mix.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the mixture while continuing to beat 10. When the dry ingredients are well incorporated, add the mashed bananas 11 and mix to obtain a homogeneous batter 12.
Pour the batter into a 9-inch diameter cake pan that you previously buttered 13. Bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for about 40 minutes. After checking the doneness with a toothpick, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely on a rack 14, then sprinkle with powdered sugar as desired. Your banana and yogurt cake is ready to be enjoyed 15!
