It's Day #2 of 30 Days of Bundts because I Like Big Bundts. Every year, I need to post at least one lemon bundt because lemon is definitely my favorite flavor. This cake doesn't disappoint! It's from King Arthur Flour recipes.

This cake is simple to make. It has lemon zest or lemon oil in the cake (I used zest) and is glazed with lemon-sugar mixture while it is still warm from the oven.

I really liked the crumb. It was soft and you can eat a few pieces without realizing it...not that I'm speaking from experience or anything.

    I absolutely love your enthusiasm for Bundt cakes! Since you like this cake, you'll probably also enjoy Rose Levy Beranbaum's Golden Lemon ALmond Cake from her Rose's Heavenly Cakes. It's a big, beautiful bundt.

    I made a Lemon Poppy Seed bundt yesterday and sang "I like big bundts!" while I made it. LOL. Thanks for the inspiration—I'm definitely going to have to do a Kitchen Bitch post on Bundt cake day. My curvy bundt pan is in the mail!

    I'm a chocolate kind of gal, but really, really like lemon baked goods when I break away from the chocolate. ;)

    I made this bundt today and it was very good. I ended up using sour cream in place of the milk because that was what I had on hand. And I used meyer lemons from my yard. Very light cake.
