The earliest use of the word in English (17th century) spelt it as yoghurD, but the Oxford English Dictionary claims the word in Turkey - from whence the stuff came, apparently - is spelt yoghurT. It also lists a whole variety of alternative spellings, but the majority of those DO contain the 'h', so I'd always go with yoghurt.
