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.

POPPY SEED BUTTERMILK BUNDT® CAKE
This "from-scratch" recipe is consistently the best I have ever seen and used. My grandmothers, mother, myself, and now my daughter used and use this fail-safe recipe. Husband waits around to "clean" the mixing bowl! This cake is very good, if out on counter and wrapped, for up to 3 days. Great as a dessert or for breakfast! Can sprinkle a mixture of cinnamon and sugar on top, or eat it plain. Freezes nicely if wrapped well.

Tips:
- Use fresh poppy seeds: Fresh poppy seeds have a more intense flavor than older seeds. If you can't find fresh poppy seeds, you can use roasted poppy seeds, but they won't have as strong a flavor.
- Grind the poppy seeds: Grinding the poppy seeds will help to release their flavor and make them easier to incorporate into the cake batter. You can use a food processor or a coffee grinder to grind the poppy seeds.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a Bundt pan: A Bundt pan is a great way to bake this cake because it allows the hot air to circulate around the cake, resulting in a evenly browned cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before glazing: This will help to prevent the glaze from running off the cake.
Conclusion:
This poppy seed Bundt cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion.
