Lemon Yogurt Bundt Cake With Limoncello Glaze Recipes

LEMON YOGURT BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour either an 8x4x2 inch loaf pan or a small bundt pan. If you are using a loaf pan you can additionally line the bottom with parchment paper.
• Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt into 1 bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the yogurt, 1 cup sugar, the eggs, lemon zest, and vanilla.
• Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. With a rubber spatula, fold the vegetable oil into the batter, making sure it's all incorporated.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for about 50 minutes, or until a cake tester placed in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
• Make a simple syrup by combining 1/3 cup lemon juice and remaining 1/3 cup sugar in a small pan and cook over low stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear. Set aside.
• When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully place on a baking rack over a sheet pan. While the cake is still warm, pour the lemon simple syrup over the cake and allow it to soak in. Cool completely.
• For the glaze, combine 1 cup confectioners' sugar + 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice and wisk to combine. Drizzle over the cooled cake.

LEMON YOGURT MINI-BUNDT CAKES WITH LIMONCELLO GLAZE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Liberally coat with baking spray, or thoroughly grease and flour, pans for 12 mini-bundts, or 24 cupcakes. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In another small bowl, stir together the yogurt and the milk just until smooth. In a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, sugar, and lemon zest for about 5 minutes, until smooth and light. Stop to scrape the bowl periodically. Add in the eggs one a time, still at medium speed, scraping down the bowl between each addition. Mix well after each egg. On low speed, add in the flour mixture alternately with the yogurt in three additions. Mix just until incorporated. Increase the speed to medium and mix for 2 minutes more, until the entire mixture is smooth and light. Add in 3 Tbsp. of the lemon juice and 1 Tbsp. of the limoncello. Blend just until evenly mixed, no more than 30 seconds. Portion the batter evenly into your pan(s); smooth the top of the batter. Bake until the center of each cake springs back when pressed lightly with a finger, and a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean. This will be about 15 minutes for mini-bundts or cupcakes (if making minis or cupcakes, don't wait for the exposed part of the cake to look golden brown; golden around the edges is enough). If you've made the cake in mini-bundt pans, let them cool for about 10 minutes before inverting the pans onto a cooling racks to remove the cakes. If you've baked cupcakes, give them no more than about five minutes in their pans before carefully removing to a cooling rack. To make the glaze: mix the confectioners' sugar, 2 Tbsp. of lemon juice and 3 Tbsp. of limoncello in a small bowl and stir until any lumps are completely gone. If you'd like the glaze thicker, just stir in a bit more confectioners' sugar until it's the texture you prefer. To apply the glaze, place the cooled cake(s) on a cooling rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Using a spoon, drizzle the glaze liberally over each cake, allowing it to drip down the sides. Let the icing set for about 15 minutes before moving the cakes. If you like, serve each cake topped with a little unsweetened whipped cream and some lemon zest curls.

REFRESHING LIMONCELLO CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare an 8-inch cake pan with cooking spray.
• Whisk together the yogurt, eggs, canola oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and 4 tablespoons limoncello in a large bowl. In a separate large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gently stir the dry ingredients into the wet. Do not over mix or the cake will be tough. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
• Stir the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of limoncello together in a small bowl until smooth. Poke small holes all over the top of the still-warm cake with a fork or toothpick. Spoon the glaze over the cake and spread with the back of a spoon. The glaze will seep into the cake and add moisture.
