Lemon Bundt Cake Recipe

Lemon Bundt Cake is a soft and bright cake I keep making many times, especially when I feel like eating some light dessert. The mild lemon flavor comes even when I am mixing the batter, and once it bakes the warm citrus smell spreads everywhere and gives a cozy feel at home.

This cake suits tea time or even a small home celebration. I sometimes pack few slices for travel also because it stays good for a day. The fresh lemon flavor keeps the cake light and pleasant and if you like a little extra tang a simple lemon drizzle on top goes very nicely with the soft crumb.

About Lemon Bundt Cake

Lemon Bundt Cake is a basic sponge style cake baked in a bundt pan that gives a cute ring shape. I used simple ingredients like flour, baking powder, baking soda and fresh lemon zest which gives a bright citrus smell. The batter is easy to mix and because the bundt pan bakes a little faster the cake gets done pretty quick.

In this recipe, lemon is the main flavor and you can also use fresh zest and juice to make the taste more tangy and fresh. This recipe flavor is gentle, and it feels comforting without making the cake heavy. It has soft and spongy texture and has that light golden shade after baking.

There are few small variations too. Some people add little vanilla along with lemon flavor and some add poppy seeds for a small crunch. You can make an orange version using the same method and it comes out really nice. If you do not have a bundt pan you can use cupcake trays or a small loaf tin also.

I usually bake this when everyone at home wants a simple and light after meal dessert. The lemon flavor gives a small fresh lift and since the cake is not heavy even kids enjoys a slice happily. Lemon Bundt is a flavorful treat that has to be tried for the joy of baking.

Lemon Bundt Cake Ingredients

  • Whole wheat flour - I added this as base for the cake as it gives flavor that blends nicely with lemon. You can use maida also if you want more lighter texture.
  • Baking powder - I use this for helping the cake rise softly and give a gentle lift. You can add little more only if your flour is very dense.
  • Baking soda - I added this along with the lemon juice since it reacts well and gives that small airy feel. You can skip if your batter feels already too loose.
  • Cane sugar - I am using cane sugar as it gives a mild caramel-like taste which suits this cake. You can use white sugar also if that is what you have.
  • Oil - I have used oil instead of butter to keep the cake more moist and soft for long time. You can add melted butter also but the texture will be slightly firm.
  • Milk - I added milk to loosen the batter and give a smooth flowy texture. You can use warm milk also if the sugar is not melting properly.
  • Lemon zest - I grated the outer skin lightly for bright aroma and taste. You can skip if you feel the lemon flavor is already strong.
  • Lemon juice - I have used fresh lemon juice which gives the refreshing taste. I also added this to make a tangy syrup to drizzle over the small cakes. You can adjust according to how tangy you want.
  • Icing sugar - I use this to make the topping glaze smoother. It dissolves quickly and gives that shiny look.

Why This Recipe Works

  • This recipe is easy and simple so you can make it even on busy days.
  • It has a soft and slightly spongy texture that lemon taste.
  • You can easily adjust the sweetness as cane sugar blends nicely.
  • It bakes fast and works even if you don't have a large oven.
  • You can use the same mixture to bake cupcakes or a small loaf also.

Expert Tips

  • Use fresh lemon - I usually use fresh lemon juice as bottled one gives slight bitterness sometimes.
  • Don't overmix - I often stop mixing once everything is just combined so the cake doesn't turn dense.
  • Grease well - I usually grease the bundt tin fully as these molds tend to stick at corners.
  • Check early - I have noticed small bundt cakes cook faster so I check a little early to avoid overbrowning.
  • Cool properly - I always let the cakes cool completely before drizzling or else the syrup becomes runny.

Serving and Storage

Serve this with warm milk, tea or even pack it in snack box. This goes well as a light evening sweet too. You can store leftover pieces in an airtight box for one day in room temperature. If you want to keep longer just refrigerate and warm little before eating. The drizzle sets nicely once cooled so it stays neat.

FAQS

1.Can I skip the lemon glaze?

Yes you can, the cake tastes good plain also.

2.Can I use full maida instead of wheat flour?

Yes you can use maida fully if you want softer cake.

3.Will butter work in place of oil?

Yes but the texture becomes little firm, not very soft.

4.Can I add vanilla essence along with lemon?

You can add few drops if you like that mixed flavor.

5.How do I know it's baked?

Just touch the top, if it springs back or a toothpick comes clean it is done.

About Orange Bundt Cake

Orange Bundt Cake is a cake made using fresh orange juice and zest along with flour and butter. The bundt pan makes it look cute and stylish but if you don't having one you can always bake in any normal tin too. The cake texture are soft, spongy and with mild tangy flavor from the orange.

This cake is different from usual vanilla cake because of citrus taste. Butter and sugar together makes it light and rich while orange zest bring out strong aroma. It is eggless but still rise well because of baking soda and baking powder. Each bites feel refreshing and not overly sweet which makes it perfect for evening snack.

Orange Bundt Cake Ingredients

  • Maida - I have used plain maida flour which makes the cake soft and light. You can also try with wheat flour if you prefer but I feel cake will turn little dense with it.
  • Butter - I have taken soft butter and beaten with sugar until creamy. You can replace with oil if needed but I like butter flavor more in this cake.
  • Powdered sugar - I have used heaped powdered sugar here. It blends quickly and gives the right sweetness. You can reduce or increase little based on your taste.
  • Baking soda and baking powder - You can see I have added both for good rising. It makes the cake fluffy and soft. Always check that they are fresh.
  • Orange juice - I have used fresh squeezed juice only. You can use any sweet orange, avoid the packed juice because it doesn't give the same flavor.
  • Orange zest - I usually grate zest from fresh orange. It adds strong citrus aroma and taste. You can skip if you don't like but I feel it really lifts the cake flavor.
  • Milk - I have boiled and cooled milk before adding. It gives moisture and balance to the tangy orange juice. You can even add little more if you feel batter too thick.

Expert Tips

  • Zesting orange - I have used small grater to take zest. I don't grate the white part as it gives bitter taste. You can always zest just before baking for freshness.
  • Mixing batter - I usually fold the flour gently after mixing wet ingredients. If you whisk too much cake may become dense. You can just mix until no lumps.
  • Baking time - I have noticed the timing depends on oven and pan size. I usually check from 12 minutes with toothpick. You can keep an eye after that.
  • Bundt pan size - I have filled batter only ¾th in the bundt mold. You can also try other shapes but don't overfill else it may overflow while baking.
  • Cooling - I usually let the cake sit for few minutes before unmolding. You can invert slowly once edges are loosened, else cake may break.

Serving and Storage

Serve Orange Bundt Cake with tea, coffee or just as a snack for kids. It is small, light and looks pretty in the bundt shape so also good to keep for evening get together or kids parties. You can store this cake in airtight box for 2 days at room temperature. I have also stored in fridge for 4-5 days, just warm little before eating. The texture stays good and soft.

FAQS

1.Can I make this without bundt pan?

Yes, you can use round or square tin also. I have tried in both and it works fine.

2.Can I use wheat flour?

Yes, you can, but cake will be bit heavy and dense. I usually prefer maida for soft texture.

3.Can I replace butter with oil?

Yes, you can use neutral oil. But I have always liked the butter flavor in this cake better.

4.Do I really need orange zest?

You can skip if you don't like strong citrus, but I feel zest is what gives cake its best aroma.

5.Can I double this recipe?

Yes, you can double easily. I have done it for bigger pan but make sure to bake evenly.

Watermelon Muffins / Whole Wheat Eggless Watermelon Muffins / Watermelon Chocolate Chip Muffins

Watermelon muffins with fresh watermelon are the perfect summer dish which is great to serve as a snack, for tiffin box or have it with your morning or evening tea or coffee. These delicious, soft and moist muffins are sure to be a hit for your kids and even adult will enjoy it as much as the kids.

We’ve been cooking and baking more since we’re spending a lot of time at home now. This has been a great way to spend quality time together. Well, my experiment with food continues and this time it is fresh watermelon in my bakes. Yes! It is watermelon muffins which is eggless and made with whole wheat flour and cane sugar as sweetner. I experimented and it worked! My kiddo is a picky eater but with the first small bite itself he loved it and finished off couple of muffins.

These muffins are made with regular pantry staples that most pantry already have like flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, essence and chocolate chips. Since watermelon is in season and I had a whole watermelon in my fridge I decided to experiment something with fresh watermelon. I thought it’s a great idea to make something that reminded of summer since the whether is warm and the heat is scorching higher.

These whole wheat fresh watermelon muffins are something to die for. The combination of sweetness from the chocolate and watermelon worked really well. Watermelons adds colour, freshness and sweetness to the muffins. This is a healthier recipe. I have used whole wheat flour instead of refined flour, fresh watermelon which adds to most of the sweetness in the muffis and cane sugar to add in sweetness to the muffins.

LET’S TALK INGREDIENTS

This super easy and refreshing watermelon muffins uses ingredients most commonly found in our kitchen pantry which we regularly use in baking. Let’s go through briefly the ingredients that goes inside the muffins.

Whole Wheat Flour – For a healthier version used whole wheat flour.

Watermelon – Used fresh sweet watermelon. Riped watermelon are best for this recipe which adds sweetness, freshness and colour.

Chocolate Chips – Semi-sweet standard sized chocolate chips is used.

Cane Sugar – Cane sugar yields soft muffins and adds incredible flavor and texture to the muffins. It’s a healthier option too.

Milk – Used whole milk. Recommend to use whole milk for extra richness, taste and texture.

Oil – I have used sunflower oil. You can use any flavorless oil. I prefer using oil than butter for a soft and moist outcome.

Leavening agents – Both baking powder & baking soda is used in the recipe to give it the perfect amount of lift.

Vinegar – Vinegar plays a huge role in rising. The reaction of vinegar with the baking soda release carbon dioxide, which helps the cake rise as they bake.

French Vanilla Essence – This is amazing flavor from Ossoro. You need to try this one. I’ll add a link below from where you can buy, if you buy from one of our links, we may earn a commission.

Salt – A dash of salt is always good in baked goodies. The salt helps to balance out the sweetness too.

VARIATIONS

● The other way to use watermelon in this recipe is – In a pan add the watermelon peices and cook over low-medium heat till the moisture is absorb completely and watermelon peices turns soft. Grind or blend them into a puree and use. You need to either increase the watermelon peices or use the same amount as mentioned in the recipe and increase the milk in the recipe to adjust the batter consistency. I would suggest to use 2-2½ cup watermelon peices if using this method, that would add more watermelon flavor to the muffins.
● If you want more nutty taste and texture, add nut sof your choice in the batter once the batter is ready. Lightly coat the nuts with flour and just throw in along with the chocolate chips and give a quick gentle mix.
● You can either use nuts or chocolate chips or a mixture of both.
● Use nut of your choice like pecans, walnuts, almonds, cashewnuts etc. You can also use mixed nuts as per your palate preference.

● To make it vegan use dairy free milk like almond milk or just water. You can also omit the milk and completely use watermelon puree or juice.
● You may make this cake with egg. Use 2 eggs and omit the milk, baking soda and vinegar from the recipe.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MASH BANANA?
The easiest and fuss-free way to mash banana is using a bowl/plate and a fork. Just peel the bananas, add them in a bowl and mash it with a fork or a potato smasher. Alternatively you can also grind it or blend it using a blender or food processor. But this creates an extra work of washing this equipment after use. It is not necessary to mash the bananas completely smooth, but if you like it completely smooth then use a food processor.

HOW TO STORE THESE BANANA NUT MUFFINS?
Allow the muffins to cool down completely. Place them in an airtight container.

Sure! You can use 7 inches cake tin. Bake at a preheated oven at 180° C for 30 to 35 minutes or a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

WHAT NUTS ARE BEST IN THIS RECIPE?
You can use mixed nuts like I did though it depends upon your palate preference. It’s amazing with pecans or walnuts in these muffins. The texture and flavor of nuts pairs well with the tenderness of the muffins and sweetness of the bananas.

CAN I OMIT THE NUTS?
YES! The recipe will still work even if the nuts are omitted. I make it nut-free sometimes and it just turns out amazing with super soft, moist and scrumptious muffins. You can also replace them with some chocolate chunks or chips to make chocolate chip banana bread.

About Eggless Vanilla Muffins

Eggless Vanilla Muffins are soft and fluffy small cakes made without eggs, using curd as the main ingredient. It's one of the simplest bakes that can be made with just few pantry things like flour, sugar, oil and curd. The muffins will rise well and stays soft even after cooling down.

The texture of these muffins are soft, and has a bit moist inside not dense. They're not overly sweet so you can enjoy them plain or add something if you like chocolate chips or chopped nuts. Sometimes I even try with orange zest or little cinnamon when I want change in flavour.

Among many eggless bakes I've tried, this is one of the most reliable one. The combo of curd and baking soda gives a nice lift and makes the crumb light and soft. The top don't turn golden much but the inside cooks fully and remains soft.

Eggless Vanilla Muffins Ingredients

  • Homemade cake flour - I have used this as the base here. It gives a soft and tender feel. If you don't have cake flour, you can make your own batch in just few minutes.
  • Sugar - It gives the sweetness to the muffins. I used regular granulated sugar.
  • Thick curd - I have used thick curd instead of eggs. It makes the muffins moist and also helps to bind everything. Avoid using thin or sour curd.
  • Baking powder - This helps in puffing the muffins. Make sure to use fresh baking powder for good rise.
  • Baking soda - It reacts with curd and gives an airy texture. You can test by adding it to curd - if bubbles come, then it's good.
  • Cooking oil - I used flavorless oil, it keeps the muffins soft and moist. You can use sunflower or rice bran oil too. Avoid strong smelling oils.
  • Vanilla essence - I have used this for flavor. It gives a lovely smell when baking. You can try butterscotch or almond essence too if you like.

Expert Tips

  • Mixing - After the flour is added do not fold rigorously, just fold in gently without applying pressure.
  • Curd thickness - Make sure to use thick and fresh curd. If it's too watery, the batter will become loose and the muffins won't rise properly.
  • Filling the liners - I usually fill only till ¾th of the muffin liner. Because it rises while baking, filling till top will make it overflow.
  • Baking time - Try not to open oven door before 20 mins. I always set a timer and check with toothpick after that only.
  • Sweetness - These are mildly sweet which I prefer. If you want it bit more sweet, just increase sugar to ½ cup.
  • Scooping tip - I use ice cream scooper to fill the liners. It gives same size muffins and bakes evenly.

Serving and Storage

Serve them warm with tea or coffee. This also goes well with milk for kids snack. You can store them in an airtight box at room temp for 2 days. For longer, keep in fridge and just warm it slightly before serving. The softness stays even after storing.

FAQS

1.Can I replace oil with butter?

Yes you can, but the muffins may feel little heavier. Oil keeps it more soft and moist.

2.Can I make this in a cake pan?

Yes, you can use loaf pan or any small cake tin. Just baking time will be more.

3.Can I skip curd?

No, curd is the main ingredient in this recipe. So I would recommend not to skip it.

4.Why my muffins didn't puff up?

Check your baking soda and powder - it should be fresh. Also don't over mix the batter.

5.Can I add choco chips or nuts?

Yes sure. Just fold in about ¼ cup chocolate chips or chopped nuts into the final batter before baking.

Eggless Chocolate Muffins | Sinfully Decadent Dark Chocolate Muffins without Eggs

By: Priyanka

If you are looking for the absolutely perfect eggless chocolate muffins recipe with a no-fail guarantee then this is it! I can vouch for these decadent chocolate muffins which are made without any eggs yet turned out super-moist with a melt-in-mouth texture!

Eggless baking was not my forte, but after I found this eggless chocolate muffins recipe on YouTube on this beautiful channel and tried it twice, things have changed for good!

I am seriously amazed how moist and tender these eggless chocolate muffins turned out and with that bitter-sweet taste of dark chocolate, these are real mood-boosters!

If you think that eggless muffins or cakes do not rise enough, this recipe will prove you wrong! These eggless chocolate muffins rose like a dream, making a super-fluffy & beautifully soft internal texture.

Why are these Eggless chocolate muffins special?

Since the time I have started a ‘no-sugar’ (or ‘low-sugar’ to be more realistic!) diet, I have minimized the frequency of baking cakes or any desserts for that matter!

Otherwise how would you be able to resist the home-baked sweets which are just too good to not eat!

But on a fine morning I started craving for something deep dark chocolatey which is not too sweet but has that bakery style texture. And it was too strong a craving!

So I started searching for that dreamy chocolatey bite and these eggless chocolate muffins appeared with all their glory! And it was simply impossible to resist not making them immediately!

After ages I baked these sinfully decadent chocolate muffins which turned out exactly how I desired and relished them with all my soul!

At the same time, I had to remain mindful of my weight loss journey where I have put in a lot of hard work and as you know too much of these can instantly add extra pounds on your scale!

Hence I had to keep a check on my craving for these goodies; so I distributed half of them among my neighbors (hopefully they liked them as much as we did!).

This way I could enjoy my home-baked eggless chocolate muffins without overdoing them way too much! Absolute win-win!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO MASH BANANA?
The easiest and fuss-free way to mash banana is using a bowl/plate and a fork. Just peel the bananas, add them in a bowl and mash it with a fork or a potato smasher. Alternatively you can also grind it or blend it using a blender or food processor. But this creates an extra work of washing this equipment after use. It is not necessary to mash the bananas completely smooth, but if you like it completely smooth then use a food processor.

HOW TO STORE THESE BANANA NUT MUFFINS?
Allow the muffins to cool down completely. Place them in an airtight container.

HOW LONG DOES EGGLESS BANANA NUT MUFFINS LAST?
Banana nut muffins can be kept for up to 3-4 days over the counter depending upon the temperature of your place. It will last for up to a week if stored in a refrigerator.

HOW TO FREEZE THESE MUFFINS?
Place the muffins in an airtight freezer safe container or zip-top freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy, take out the required muffins and allow to thaw in room temperature or microwave it for 30-60 seconds.

CAN I MAKE THESE INTO BANANA NUT CAKE INSTEAD?
Sure! You can use 7 inches cake tin. Bake at a preheated oven at 180° C for 30 to 35 minutes or a tester inserted into the center comes out clean.

WHAT NUTS ARE BEST IN THIS RECIPE?
You can use mixed nuts like I did though it depends upon your palate preference. It’s amazing with pecans or walnuts in these muffins. The texture and flavor of nuts pairs well with the tenderness of the muffins and sweetness of the bananas.

CAN I OMIT THE NUTS?
YES! The recipe will still work even if the nuts are omitted. I make it nut-free sometimes and it just turns out amazing with super soft, moist and scrumptious muffins. You can also replace them with some chocolate chunks or chips to make chocolate chip banana bread.
