3. In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and orange zest and whisk.
4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter, honey, vanilla and almond extract until smooth. Whisk in the yogurt.
5. Add the flour mixture in a few batches, mixing until just combined.
6. Grease a 9-inch round springform pan, then pour in the batter.
7. Bake in the centre of the oven for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean or with some crumbs.
8. As soon as the cake comes out, pierce it all over with a toothpick or skewer and pour the cooled syrup over it.
9. Leave the cake to cool for 2 hours, then move it to a serving plate.
