It is made by mixing dry and wet ingredients together and baking till soft, this method is very basic and easy to follow.

• Wheat flour - I have added this for little healthy touch and balance. It also gives slight texture. You can replace fully with maida if needed.
• Icing sugar - This is used to sweeten the batter evenly. It mixes well without grainy feel. You can powder regular sugar and use.
• Cocoa powder - I have used this for chocolate flavor and color. It gives rich taste to the cupcake. 
• Oil - I just add it for moistness. It helps the cake stay soft even later also. You can use any neutral oil.
• Milk - I added to make this the batter smooth and light. It helps in baking the cake evenly.
• Cooking soda - I added for rise and to stay soft. Make sure it is fresh. Do not add extra as taste will change.

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.
