Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat 0.5 cup of softened unsalted butter with 0.75 cup of sugar substitute until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
Add 3 large eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract until combined.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with 0.5 cup of plain unsweetened yogurt and 0.25 cup of milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, using the parchment paper overhang, lift the loaf out and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve the cake plain or with your favorite sugar-free toppings. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
