Follow these instructions to get your cake started!
- Kick the tires and light the fires to 350 degrees.
- Cream your butter, sugar and eggs with your mixer.
- Start zesting that lemon!
- Add the lemon zest into the sugar/butter mixture. Squeeze out the lemon juice and add it to the mixer as well.
- Whisk together your dry ingredients.
- Alternate the dry ingredients with the milk, slowly mixing them in.
- Pour into a greased and floured bundt pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes, or until a knife stuck in comes out clean. And why glaze it when you can ice it? Use my Lemon Buttercream Icing to make this one helluva lemon kick.

Can I add blueberries to this recipe? I have frozen blueberries I’d like to use, how much would you recommend and should I coat them in flour before blending into batter? Thanks

I wish homemade cakes didnt have sooo much sugar. I’m looking at lemon Bundt cake. No one has ever said”I’d rather burn my house down than clean it” I’ve met a kindred spirit lol.

Does the nutrition info on your recipes count by servings or the full recipe?
Mr. Kitchen Magpie says
It’s by servings, which you can adjust.

I think you might have a bit of a photo mix-up here — unless I missed the part where you add chicken and garlic to the lemon Bundt. 😉
