STRAWBERRY LEMON BUNDT CAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 and grease a 10-inch bundt pan. Set aside.
• Sift together 2 1/4 c. of flour and baking soda. Mix in the zest of 1 lemon and set aside.
• Cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the eggs 1 at a time then add the lemon juice. Alternate adding the flour mixture and 7Up, mixing just until incorporated.
• Toss the strawberries with 1/4 c. of flour and gently mix into the batter.
• Pour the batter into the bundt pant and place in the oven. Reduce temperature to 325 and bake for 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Allow to cool for 20 minutes in the pan then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
• Whisk together 1 3/4 tablespoons of lemon juice with the powdered sugar and drizzle over the cake.

LEMON ROSE BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a Rose bundt pan with nonstick spray and dust with flour; set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk to combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, until fully combined. Beat in lemon juice and zest, then reduce speed to low. Add flour in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk, and beginning and ending with flour.
• Remove bowl from stand and measure out 1 1/2 cup batter, place in a medium bowl and stir together with strawberry jam and 2 drops red food gel. Add 1/2 of remaining plain batter into bottom of bundt pan. Spoon batter with jam over evenly. Top with remaining plain batter and run a knife through the pan to swirl the batters together.
• Place bundt pan on a parchment lined baking sheet to keep cake level and bake on middle rack until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 50-60 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make glaze, place confectioners sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitter with the whisk attachment. Add pomegranate juice and beat, starting on low, until smooth and thick. Add more pomegranate juice as needed to make the glaze thick and pourable. Add drops of red food gel to give the glaze a bright red rose color.
• Spoon half of the glaze over the cooled cake, coating completely. Let the glaze dry, about 15 minutes, then spoon over remaining glaze to give the cake an even coating.

FRESH STRAWBERRY BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Make the cake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 325 degrees. Carefully butter and flour a 16-cup Bundt pan, making sure to get in all of the cracks and crevices.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter and sugar until combined. Add lemon zest, and then cream the mixture until light and fluffy on medium-high speed, about 5 minutes.
• With the mixer on low, add the eggs one at a time, making sure each egg is completely incorporated before adding the next. Add the yogurt, lemon juice and vanilla, and stir on medium speed to combine, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary to incorporate all the ingredients. The mixture may curdle a bit, but don't worry too much about it.
• Add the flour mixture all at once and mix on low until almost completely combined.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer, scrape and fold any excess flour into the batter, and scoop out roughly 1/2 cup/100 grams of batter. Drop tablespoons of batter into the bottom of the prepared pan, and smooth into the bottom of the pan. (This batter will prevent the strawberries from sinking to the bottom of the pan and sticking.) Add the chopped strawberries to the remaining batter in the bowl and gently fold in until the strawberries are evenly distributed. The batter will be thick.
• Spoon the batter evenly into the pan, smooth the top and tap the pan firmly on the counter a few times to release any large air bubbles. Bake the cake until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean (a few small crumbs are O.K.), about 70 minutes. Cool the pan on a rack for 15 minutes, then turn the cake out onto the rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is cool, make the glaze: In a medium bowl, use a fork to mash the reserved 1/4 cup/40 grams of strawberries. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons of lemon juice. The glaze should be thick but just pourable. If it seems thin, add a bit more confectioners' sugar; if it is too thick to stir, add a bit more lemon juice. Pour the glaze evenly over the cake (you can glaze it over a rack if you prefer to let the excess glaze drip off), let it set for a few minutes and serve. Once the glaze has dried completely, refrigerate any leftover cake, loosely draped with plastic wrap.
