Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
Mix the Wet Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the quark, melted butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
If using, add the lemon zest for a fresh, zesty flavor.
Combine the Dry Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure an even mix.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring gently to combine. Be careful not to overmix.
Bake the Cake:
Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve:
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
Slice and serve the Quark Cake as is, or pair it with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh berries for extra indulgence.
