How to Make Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake With Lemony Glaze

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the lemon zest.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the poppy seeds and lemon juice. Let it sit for at least 10 minutes.
  7. Stir the soaked poppy seeds into the batter.
  8. Pour batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cake is cooling, prepare the glaze: Whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Add more lemon juice if needed to reach desired consistency.
  11. Once the cake is completely cool, drizzle the glaze over the top and let it set before serving.
