Lemon and vanilla Bundt cake

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Cakes and Desserts
The marriage of vanilla and lemon is one of the most sophisticated flavour combinations in baking. The sweet, floral scent of vanilla softens the sharp acidity of the lemon, creating a harmonious, comforting flavour profile. This Bundt belongs to the 'butter cake' family, which is denser and richer than a traditional sponge.

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat the oven to 180°C (160°C Fan). Grease the tin and dust with flour.

Tip: Be thorough, especially around the central tube.
2 ✓

Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Tip: Sifting helps avoid bitter lumps of baking powder in the batter.
3 ✓

Beat the eggs with the sugar and vanilla sugar until fluffy, increased in volume, and pale in colour.

Tip: This is the basis of 'physical leavening': the egg foam will hold the cake up.
4 ✓

Mix the lukewarm melted butter, milk, lemon juice, and zest into the egg foam.

Tip: Pour it in whilst mixing continuously so the foam doesn't collapse.
5 ✓

Fold in the flour mixture.

Tip: Mix gently but firmly until the flour disappears.
6 ✓

Bake for 35-40 minutes. Skewer test is mandatory!

Tip: If the skewer is clean, the cake is ready. Do not dry it out by overbaking.
7 ✓

Cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

Tip: Excess steam escapes more easily from a warm cake.

Why isn't the vanilla flavour strong enough?
