DOUBLE LEMON-POPPY SEED BUNDT CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 10-inch (12-cup) Bundt pan, preferably nonstick, with cooking spray and dust with flour (or use cooking spray with flour). Toast poppy seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and the poppy seeds in a medium bowl. Combine buttermilk, oil, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice in a glass measuring cup. Beat eggs, egg whites and sugar (or Splenda) in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until thickened and pale, about 5 minutes. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula, a third at a time, alternating with 2 additions of the buttermilk mixture. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake the cake until the top springs back when touched lightly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges and turn the cake out onto the rack. Meanwhile, prepare glaze: Sift 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar into a small bowl; mix with lemon juice and water to create a thin glaze.Poke 1-inch-deep holes all over the cake with a skewer. Coat the warm cake with the glaze using a pastry brush. Let cool completely. To serve, set the cake on a serving plate and dust with confectioners' sugar.
Tips and Conclusion
Double Lemon Cake is a moist and flavorful cake packed with lemon flavor. Here are some tips and tricks to make the best Double Lemon Cake:- Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemons provide the best flavor for this cake. If you can, use organic lemons to avoid any pesticides or chemicals.
- Zest the lemons before juicing them. This will release the essential oils from the lemon peel, which will give your cake a more intense lemon flavor.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cake, making it lighter and more tender.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cake from curdling.
- Mix the dry ingredients together before adding them to the wet ingredients. This will help to prevent the cake from becoming tough.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the cake bakes evenly.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.
- Garnish it with fresh lemon zest or slices.
- Drizzle it with a lemon glaze.
- Use it as a base for a lemon trifle.
- Pair it with a cup of coffee or tea.
