Janets Lemon Bundt Cake Recipes

EASY LEMON BUNDT CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• With a standing mixer or a handheld mixer, cream the butter until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
• Add granulated sugar and lemon zest to the butter and mix until it is well combined.
• Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• In a separate bowl, whisk salt, baking powder, all purpose flour and cornstarch together. Set aside.
• Mix lemon juice, milk and vanilla extract together.
• Alternately, add the flour mixture and milk mixture to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until everything is just combined.
• Add in sour cream and mix until just combined.
• Grease your bundt cake pan well and pour the batter evenly into the pan.
• Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean (if there are a few moist crumbs stuck to it, that's fine). (My oven took exactly 49 minutes.)
• Allow to cool for about 10-15 minutes, then remove the cake from the bundt pan and allow it to finish cooling on a wire rack or plate.
• Whisk powdered sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest together. Once combined, drizzle over the cooled cake.
• Allow the icing to set, about 5 minutes, before serving.
• Enjoy!

LEMON BUNDT CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Make the cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and salt with an electric hand mixer until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until fully incorporated before adding the next. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla and beat to combine.
• Add half the flour and beat to combine, then beat in the milk, then add the rest of the flour and beat just until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and make sure any floury spots are incorporated.
• Grease a 10-inch (25-cm) bundt pan with nonstick spray. Spoon the batter into the pan and smooth the top. Gently tap the pan against the counter to release any air bubbles.
• Bake the cake for 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• While the cake is baking, make the lemon glaze: In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the sugar and lemon juice. Microwave for 1 minute, stirring halfway through, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside.
• Make the lemon icing: Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. Add the lemon juice and whisk until smooth.
• After the cake is done baking, let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack set over a baking sheet and remove the bundt pan. Use a knife to loosen the cake around the edges, if needed.
• Use a skewer or fork to poke holes all over the top and sides of the cake. Brush the cake with the lemon glaze. If the glaze drips off, let the cake cool for a few more minutes, then continue brushing on the glaze. Let cool completely, at least 1 hour.
• Pour the icing over the top of the cake, letting it drip down the sides. Grate lemon zest over the icing. Let the glaze dry completely, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the cake to a serving platter, slice, and serve.
• Enjoy!

JANET'S LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325. Spray bundt pan with Baker's Joy OR grease bundt pan with crisco or shortening and sprinkle with sugar. Boil 1 cup of water. Gather up the ingredients you will need.
• 2. Using a spoon combine well the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs and oil. This will be a little thick. Now add the "boiling" hot water. This is the secret to the moistness. My Tip: I add a few drops of lemon extract to the cup of boiling water just to give it more lemon flavor. This is, of course, optional.
• 3. Mix well by using a mixer then pour into prepared bundt pan. Bake @325 for approximately 40-45 minutes. Cool just a bit then turn out onto cake plate. Punch holes in cake (using a skewer or an ice pick) then ice cake while warm.
• 4. ICING: Mix powdered sugar (about 1 1/4 cups) with lemon juice (maybe 4 TBSP) and a drop of lemon extract to spreading consistency. Should be a little thin because it's a glaze. Add more powdered if too thin or add more lemon juice if too thick. Lemon zest is optional.
• 5. ***ORANGE BREAD: Same as above except use orange cake mix (w/o pudding) and vanilla instant pudding. I actually boiled one cup of freshly squeezed orange juice in the batter in lieu of the water. I used freshly squeezed orange juice and orange extract w/powdered sugar for the glaze. I also zested a little orange peel in it, too.

LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350°F/180°C. Grease well a 12-cup (10-inch) Bundt pan and set aside.
• To make the cake: In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a small bowl, mix together buttermilk/sour cream, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Set bowls aside.
• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, sugar, and lemon zest on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until fluffy. Occasionally scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, beat in the flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the lemon juice mixture in 2 additions, starting and ending with the flour. Do not over mix.
• Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 45-55 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If the top is browning too fast while baking, cover pan loosely with aluminum foil. Allow cake to cool for 10-15 minutes, then remove from pan, carefully inverting it onto a plate.
• Meanwhile, make the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine sugar and lemon juice. Cook on medium-low heat until sugar dissolves and syrup forms. After inverting the cake to a plate, brush top and sides of the cake evenly with syrup. Use all syrup. Allow cake to cool to room temperature.
• To make the glaze: In a small bowl, combine sugar, lemon juice, and milk, and whisk until smooth. Add more milk as necessary until you get a thick yet pourable consistency. Pour over top of cake and let drizzle down the sides. Allow glaze to set, 15-30 minutes.
• The cake is best served at room temperature. Store cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Leftovers can be frozen for up to 2 months.
