Luscious Lemon Poppy Bundt Recipes

Steps:

• Pour the buttermilk into a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, stir in the poppy seeds, and set aside at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Thoroughly spray the inside of a Bundt pan with the baking spray and set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and 2 cups of the granulated sugar on medium speed for about 5 minutes, until light yellow and fluffy. With the mixer on low, add the eggs, one at a time, the vanilla, and lemon zest, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula.
• Sift the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking powder, and baking soda into a medium bowl. Add 1/4 cup of the lemon juice to the buttermilk mixture. With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture in thirds, beginning and ending with the flour. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula to be sure the batter is well mixed. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
• Meanwhile, place the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and the remaining 1/2 cup of lemon juice in a small saucepan and cook over high heat until the sugar dissolves. Set aside. When the cake is done, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a baking rack set over a large plate. Spoon the warm lemon syrup slowly over the cake, allowing it to be absorbed into the cake. Set aside for at least 30 minutes to cool.
• For the glaze, whisk the confectioners' sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl, adding a little more sugar or lemon juice to make a smooth, thick, but pourable glaze. Drizzle over the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides. Transfer to a flat cake plate and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Soak poppy seeds in milk for 2 hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.
• In a large bowl, stir together cake mix and pudding mix. Make a well in the center and pour in water, oil, and eggs. Beat on low speed until blended. Scrape bowl, and beat 4 minutes on medium speed. Blend in poppy seed mixture. Pour batter into prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.

Steps:

• For the lemon poppy seed Bundt cake: Preheat the oven 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a Bundt pan.
• Whisk together the poppy seeds, lemon zest and juice, limoncello and eggs in a bowl until combined.
• In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda and mix to combine. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the 2 1/4 sticks butter 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until a pea-sized crumble texture is achieved. Increase the speed to medium and slowly stream in the egg mixture and beat until combined. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Pour into the prepared Bundt pan and smooth out the top.
• Bake until a cake tester comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool for 30 minutes, then turn out onto a cake pedestal.
• For the strawberry-vanilla glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, strawberry jelly, vanilla and lemon zest and juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Pour over the cooled cake and top with the sprinkles.

Steps:

• Pour into Bundt pan coated with flour based cooking spray.
• Bake for 40 minutes or until tester comes out clean.
• Cool on rack set over foil lined baking sheet; remove from pan.
• Microwave cream cheese frosting (lid and foil removed) for 30 seconds or until pourable, stirring once.
• Pour over cake to coat.
• Press pistachios onto side of cake around base and top with raspberries.
• Add lemon slices (quarters) to the border with a pistachio nut in the center as decoration, if desired -- edible flowers add to the top nicely too when available.
