Lemon Rose Bundt Cake Recipes

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.

GLAZED LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush a 10-cup Bundt pan with oil and dust with flour, tapping out the excess. Make sure to get in all the creases in the pan. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt together in a medium bowl and set aside.
• Whisk the sugar and eggs together in a large bowl until well combined and the eggs are pale. Gradually whisk in the oil until smooth and then whisk in the sour cream, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice. Add the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon just until combined but still a bit lumpy. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake until the cake pulls away from the side of the pan and a wooden skewer inserted near the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool 10 minutes in the pan on a wire rack and then invert onto the rack and cool completely.
• Whisk the confectioners? sugar and 3 tablespoons juice together in a medium bowl until smooth and thick. Gradually whisk in the remaining tablespoon of juice as needed until the glaze is just thin enough to pour. Drizzle or pour over the cake.

FRESH LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube pan (such as a Bundt®).
• Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add eggs one at a time, alternating with flour, allowing each egg and portion of flour to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Stir lemon juice and zest into flour mixture until batter is just combined; pour into prepared pan.
• Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes.

Beat in lemon juice and zest, then reduce speed to low. Add flour in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk, and beginning and ending with flour.
• Remove bowl from stand and measure out 1 1/2 cup batter, place in a medium bowl and stir together with strawberry jam and 2 drops red food gel. Add 1/2 of remaining plain batter into bottom of bundt pan. Spoon batter with jam over evenly. Top with remaining plain batter and run a knife through the pan to swirl the batters together.
• Place bundt pan on a parchment lined baking sheet to keep cake level and bake on middle rack until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 50-60 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make glaze, place confectioners sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitter with the whisk attachment. Add pomegranate juice and beat, starting on low, until smooth and thick. Add more pomegranate juice as needed to make the glaze thick and pourable. Add drops of red food gel to give the glaze a bright red rose color.
• Spoon half of the glaze over the cooled cake, coating completely. Let the glaze dry, about 15 minutes, then spoon over remaining glaze to give the cake an even coating.

LEMON BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees, and butter and flour a 12- to 15-cup Bundt pan. Make sure to apply a thin layer of butter and flour on every nook and cranny of the pan to ensure that the cake doesn't stick.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and baking soda.
• Zest the lemons into the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl.
• Remove the remaining peel and pith from 3 of the lemons by cutting off the top and bottom tip of each lemon. Stand each lemon up on one end, and use a sharp paring knife to follow the curve of the fruit and cut the peel and white pith away; discard it. Chop the lemon flesh into small pieces and remove the seeds and any large pieces of membrane. Transfer the chopped lemons to a bowl if the juice is running off of the board. (You should have about ⅓ cup.) Set aside.
• Add the granulated sugar to the bowl with the zest and rub the mixture together with your fingers to release the oils in the zest. Add the softened butter and oil to the mixture, and mix on medium speed with the paddle attachment or using an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally to ensure even mixing.
• Add the sour cream and salt, and mix on medium speed until homogeneous. Add the lemon flesh and juices, and mix until well combined; the mixture may separate a bit, but don't worry.
• Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula to make sure everything is well mixed and no pockets of flour remain.
• Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top and tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles. Bake the cake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the cake is golden and puffed, and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs.
• Let the cake cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Then carefully turn it out onto a rack or serving plate to glaze and finish cooling.
• While the cake cools, make the glaze: Juice the remaining lemon. (You should have about 4 tablespoons.) Add the confectioners' sugar, a pinch of salt and about three-quarters of the lemon juice to a bowl. Whisk until smooth, adding more lemon juice as necessary to make a thin but opaque glaze.
• Immediately brush a thin layer of glaze over the warm cake, and let the glaze set until the cake has cooled to almost room temperature. When the cake is mostly cool, brush the remaining glaze over the top. Cool, slice and serve. Store any leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 4 days; the glaze may get a bit sticky as it sits.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, lemon zest, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar on medium-high until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; mix in lemon juice.
• With mixer on low, alternately add flour mixture and sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture; mix just until incorporated (do not overmix). Spoon batter into prepared pan and smooth top with a rubber spatula. Firmly tap pan on a work surface to level batter.
• Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean; 55 to 60 minutes (if cake browns too quickly, tent loosely with aluminum foil). Let cake cool in pan 30 minutes, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely. (To store, wrap cake in plastic and keep at room temperature up to 3 days.) Poke holes all over the cooled cake, and brush with lemon syrup. If the cake does not absorb all the syrup at once, allow to sit about 20 minutes before continuing to brush with any remaining syrup.
