hourIngredients
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon lemon zest
4 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- Lemon Glaze
1 2/3 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon milk
1 teaspoon lemon zest, plus more for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set bowl aside.
- Using a stand mixer, cream together sugar, butter, and lemon zest on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 5-7 minutes.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and blend in eggs, one at a time.
- Turn off mixer and add the dry ingredients, milk, lemon juice, sour cream, and vanilla. Return mixer to medium speed and mix until ingredients are just combined, about 2-3 minutes. Turn off mixer and use a spatula to scrape sides of bowl, mixing in any wayward ingredients.
- Generously grease a 10-inch bundt cake pan with baking spray, then pour in cake batter. Use a spatula to gently smooth out top into an even layer.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near center comes out clean (no crumbs).
- Remove cake from oven and allow to cool, still in bundt cake pan, for 20-30 minutes. Once cool, remove cake from bundt pan and allow cake to finish cooling completely on a wire cooling rack.
- For the Lemon Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, milk, and lemon zest until smooth.
- If you’d like glaze to be thinner, add a small splash of lemon juice or milk until desired consistency is reached. If you’d like glaze to be thicker, add 1 tablespoon powdered sugar at a time until glaze is thick enough.
- Putting it All Together
- Transfer cake to a serving plate, then drizzle lemon glaze on top. Garnish with more lemon zest, if desired.
- Serve as desired.
