How to Make Lemon Bundt Cake:
The first step is to preheat your oven as well as grease the bundt pan and dust it with flour to ensure there will be no stickage (not a word, but we make up words here at easy crumb easy dough).
Next, put the cake mix, pudding mix, oil, water and eggs into a large mixing bowl, you can beat with electric mixer or use spatula to mix. Both work fine. The electric mixer is for if you’re feeling a little more lazy, or a spatula if you’re lookin’ for a workout ;). I always know I’m done mixing when the batter has no more lumps and looks thick.
Then, pour and spread batter evenly in the prepared bundt cake pan and put that baby in the oven! I leave it there for about 40 minutes or until a light, golden brown. Then take your Lemon Bundt Cake out of the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
While it’s cooling let’s make the glaze. Super easy, just powdered sugar and milk. Mix it together until smooth. After the cake has cooled a bit, I like to use a long, kinda sharp knife and run it along the the cake and pan to make sure no part of the cake is sticking.
Then, put a serving plate over the top of the cake, then flip her! Your result should be a perfect, delicious looking cake. And even if you had some problems with the stickage ;), and it doesn’t look perfect, don’t worry it’ll still taste good. Also, the secret is that glazes cover everything!! Keep that in mind!
Next step is the best step, putting the glaze on! Best advice on this is to just spread it evenly and try not to mess with it too much. Trust me, the effortless look is always the way to go. And your done baking your Lemon Bundt Cake!
Happy Baking!
