Description

A simple and delicious recipe for a moist and flavorful lemon bundt cake, complete with a luscious lemon glaze. Perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
  • ½ cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 3–4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a bundt pan. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in eggs one at a time until fully incorporated. Stir in vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of lemon zest.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Alternately add dry ingredients and a mixture of sour cream and lemon juice to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix until just combined, do not overmix.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and spread evenly. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the thickest part comes out clean.
  5. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. While the cake cools, prepare the glaze by whisking together powdered sugar and 3-4 tablespoons of lemon juice until desired consistency is reached. Stir in the remaining 1 teaspoon of lemon zest.
  7. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top, allowing it to drip down the sides. Let the glaze set before slicing and serving.
