“You guys like a bake sale, right? I mean we need money for the dance recital and you know I do an empowering lemon bundt!” Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Season 4. Ah Buffy.

She was a smart girl, that vampire slayer. She knew that there is nothing like a good lemon bundt cake! And this, my friends, is a delicious lemon bundt cake.

How to Make Lemon Bundt Cake

To make this amazing Lemon Bundt Cake, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 4-5 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1-2 tbp fresh lemon juice
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 1/4 cups milk

Follow these instructions to get your cake started!

  1. Kick the tires and light the fires to 350 degrees.
  2. Cream your butter, sugar and eggs with your mixer.
  3. Start zesting that lemon!
  4. Add the lemon zest into the sugar/butter mixture. Squeeze out the lemon juice and add it to the mixer as well.
  5. Whisk together your dry ingredients.
  6. Alternate the dry ingredients with the milk, slowly mixing them in.
  7. Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife stuck in comes out clean. And why glaze it when you can ice it? Use my Lemon Buttercream Icing to make this one helluva lemon kick.

It’s easy to whip up and throw some icing on top!

Betcha Buffy didn’t have icing as good as mine.

Happy baking!

    Does the nutrition info on your recipes count by servings or the full recipe?

    • Mr. Kitchen Magpie says

      It’s by servings, which you can adjust.

    I think you might have a bit of a photo mix-up here — unless I missed the part where you add chicken and garlic to the lemon Bundt. 😉
