I’ll be honest and say I made this lemon bundt cake because I was in a mood and you probably know the kind of day I mean when the skies are bright blue and the inbox is overflowing and there are absolutely no lemons in the fridge so naturally I went out and bought an entire bag.

The turned out so much better because it had golden edges and that zingy citrus smell and a glaze that looked like sunshine and I may or may not have danced in the kitchen although okay I totally did.
There’s just something about lemon desserts that makes them feel like summer even if it’s in spring and with one bite of this cake I suddenly feel like I’m wearing a sundress and sitting barefoot on a porch and just feeling happy.

This one has all the good stuff because it’s got a bright lemon flavor which is kind of obvious and a moist and tender crumb which I hate to say but it really fits and there’s also that sweet and tangy glaze that soaks into the top just perfectly.

Oh and fair warning it disappears fast because cousins will grab seconds before it even cools down but hey that’s always a good sign right Hhhh.

So let’s go ahead and make it together and just don’t forget the baking powder this time.

Ingredients :

For the cake:

• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest about 2 lemons
• ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup buttermilk or 1 cup milk + 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar

For the lemon glaze:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2–3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest optional

How to Make Lemon Bundt Cake

Step 1

The first thing you need to do is preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease and flour your Bundt pan. Make sure to get into all the nooks and crannies so the cake doesn’t stick!

Step 2

Second, mix the dry ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. Then, cream the butter and sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This takes about 3-4 minutes using an electric mixer.

Step 3

Add the eggs and flavoring: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each one. Then, add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla. Then, add the dry and wet ingredients: Slowly mix in the flour mixture, alternating with the buttermilk. Start and end with the flour. Mix just until combined don’t overmix!

Step 4

Now, pour and bake: Pour the mixture evenly into the Bundt pan. Smooth the surface of the cake with a spatula. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool: Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then carefully invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 5

Finally, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Spread over the cooled cake. Sprinkle some lemon zest on top, if desired!

Don’t overmix the batter after adding flour, or the cake may turn out dense.

For extra flavor, poke small holes in the warm cake and drizzle a little lemon juice over it before glazing.

Frankly, I like to eat this dessert with a glass of refreshing fruit juice or a cold drink, but my mother-in-law likes to eat it with a cup of warm tea. Even I sometimes crave it with a warm drink like tea or milk with cocoa. As for my children, they usually eat it with milk or hot cocoa.
