2. Butter and flour the pan (bundt pan)
3. Add eggs and beat
4. In separate bowl, sift flour, salt, baking powder
5. In another bowl, add baking soda to yogurt
6. Add flour and yogurt mixtures alternately to butter/sugar/egg mixture

8. Put 1/3 of batter into pan, sprinkle filling on batter, dot with butter, then put rest of batter on top
