Yield 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

For Double Lemon-Poppy Seed Bundt Cake:
1/4 cup poppy seeds
1 1/2 cups whole-wheat pastry flour (see Ingredient note)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk or equivalent buttermilk powder (see Tip)
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons freshly grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 large eggs, at room temperature (see Tip)
2 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 1/4 cups sugar or 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons Splenda Sugar Blend for Baking
For Lemon glaze:
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Coat a 10-inch (12-cup) Bundt pan, preferably nonstick, with cooking spray and dust with flour (or use cooking spray with flour). Toast poppy seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and the poppy seeds in a medium bowl. Combine buttermilk, oil, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice in a glass measuring cup. Beat eggs, egg whites and sugar (or Splenda) in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until thickened and pale, about 5 minutes. Fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture with a rubber spatula, a third at a time, alternating with 2 additions of the buttermilk mixture. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake the cake until the top springs back when touched lightly and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Loosen the edges and turn the cake out onto the rack. Meanwhile, prepare glaze: Sift 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar into a small bowl; mix with lemon juice and water to create a thin glaze.Poke 1-inch-deep holes all over the cake with a skewer. Coat the warm cake with the glaze using a pastry brush. Let cool completely. To serve, set the cake on a serving plate and dust with confectioners' sugar.

DOUBLE LEMON-POPPY SEED BUNDT CAKE



Double Lemon-Poppy Seed Bundt Cake image

The central cone in a Bundt cake pan ensures that a dense cake batter--like the luscious buttermilk and lemon-flecked one here--cooks evenly and thoroughly. We love that Bundt cakes don't demand frosting--just let a sweet lemon glaze run over the warm cake and you've got perfection.
