Best 6 Lemon Amaretto Bundt Cake Recipes

AMARETTO BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• How to make the cake:
• Preheat Oven at 325 degrees.
• Grease a bundt cake pan with baking spray (Grease generously.)
• Add the cake mix and pudding mix to a large mixing bowl.
• Mix the cake mix and pudding mix with a whisk until well blended to prevent the batter from clumping as you add the wet ingredients.
• Add the eggs, milk, cooking oil, almond extract, and vanilla extract to the cake mix, and mix well until blended. (The batter will be slightly thick.)
• Add the 1/2 cup of Amaretto to the cake batter and mix well. (This will help thin out the batter.)
• Place in cake mix in the greased bundt cake pan. Place the cake in the center of the preheated oven.
• Cook the cake for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted.
• Place the cake pan on a baker's rack to allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes.
• Once the cake cools, poke holes in the cake and pour half of the glaze over the cake.
• Let the cake cool completely after this. Once the cake has cooled completely place a cake dish over the top of the bundt cake pan and flip the pan over while you hold the cake dish and cake pan together, this will allow the cake come out of the cake pan onto the cake dish.
• Pour the other half of the glaze onto the cake after the cake has been placed onto the cake dish.
• How to cook the Butter Amaretto Sauce:
• Make your sauce while the cake is cooking.
• Place the butter, water, white sugar, and vanilla extract into a medium saucepan.
• Mix these ingredients together, and then cook the sauce for about five minutes using medium heat (be sure to frequently stir the sauce as it cooks).
• Once the sauce is cooked, remove from heat, and mix the Amaretto into the sauce, and set aside. (The sauce will thicken after cooking.)
• After the cake has cooked and cooled for about 10 minutes, poke holes into the cake, and then pour half of the glaze over the cake.
• After placing the cake on a cake dish, take the other half of sauce and pour it over the cake.

LEMON AMARETTO CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Spray 3 (9-inch) round baking pans with nonstick baking spray with flour. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugar, and lemon zest at medium speed with a mixer until fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in lemon juice. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour and baking soda. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture, alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, beating just until combined after each addition. Stir in sour cream. Spoon batter into prepared pans. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove from pans, and let cool completely on wire racks. Spread Amaretto-Almond Filling between layers. Spread Fluffy Meringue Frosting over top and sides of cake. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• In a small bowl, combine gelatin and 3 tablespoons cold water; let stand for 2 minutes or until softened. In a small saucepan, bring ½ cup cream and liqueur to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat, and simmer for 1 minute. Add gelatin mixture, whisking to dissolve. Remove from heat; let stand for 10 minutes. In a large bowl, beat remaining 1½ cups cream at medium speed with a mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. With mixer running, slowly add gelatin mixture, beating until combined. Beat in almonds. Cover and chill for 4 hours, or refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• In a large bowl, beat egg whites at high speed with a mixer until stiff peaks form. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, cook sugar and ¾ cup water over medium-high heat until mixture reaches 248° on a candy thermometer. With mixer running at high speed, slowly pour hot syrup into egg whites. Beat mixture for 10 minutes until glossy, thick, white, and fluffy. Use immediately.

AMARETTO OLIVE OIL CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F with rack in middle. Grease pan with some oil, then line bottom with a round of parchment.
• Toast almonds in a rimmed baking sheet until fragrantly toasty and a shade darker, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool completely.
• Combine toasted almonds, matzoh meal, potato starch, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until almonds are very finely ground.
• Whisk together egg yolks, olive oil, Amaretto, and half of almond mixture in a large bowl until combined (mixture will be slightly grainy from almonds).
• Beat whites with a pinch of salt in another bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until they just hold soft peaks. Increase speed to medium high and add 1/2 cup sugar in a slow steady stream, beating, and continue to beat meringue until it holds stiff glossy peaks.
• Fold one third of meringue into yolk mixture to lighten, then fold in remaining meringue gently but thoroughly.
• Sprinkle remaining almond mixture evenly over the batter and fold in gently but thoroughly. Pour batter into prepared pan, and smooth the top. Sprinkle the top evenly with remaining 2 tablespoons sugar.
• Bake until cake is golden, the top has formed a crust, and a tester comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and run a sharp knife along edge of pan. Cool cake in pan 30 minutes.
• If using a springform pan, remove sides of springform. Then, whether you are using the springform or a round cake pan, invert cake onto the rack. Remove bottom (if using springform) and parchment. Set another cooling rack over bottom of cake, then reinvert cake onto second rack, and cool completely.
• Serve cake in wedges with berries on the side.

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.

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.

AMARETTO CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan.
• In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, instant vanilla pudding, water, oil, almond extract, and 2 tablespoons of the amaretto; blend together well. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of cake comes out clean. Remove cake from oven and while it is still warm, poke holes in the surface. Drizzle with the Amaretto Glaze, insuring that some of the glaze fills the holes. Let the cake cool for at least 2 hours before removing from the pan.
• To make Amaretto Glaze: Sift the confectioners' sugar, and combine it with the remaining 1/2 cup amaretto. Blend until smooth. You may add more amaretto as needed.
