This recipe is an adaptation from America’s Test Kitchen and it produces exactly what the name suggests: a very basic, classic yellow bundt cake. This is one of those go-to recipes that is fool-proof and that turns out excellent every time you make it. The taste, is slightly sweet, very moist and buttery. We like to make this cake with a cream cheese glaze which compliments it nicely. |

12-14 servings
Pan coating 1 tablespoon butter, melted 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Cake 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1 tablespoon vanilla extract ¾ cup buttermilk 3 large eggs 1 large egg yolk 18 tablespoons butter 2 cups sugar
Method:
Heat the oven up to 350 degrees. Mash the butter together with the flour into a paste and brush evenly on the inside of the pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, vanilla and butter milk together. In a third bowl, whisk together the eggs and the yolk gently.
Using an electric mixer, beat the sugar and the butter together until light and fluffy, 3 to 6 minutes. Beat the eggs in two batches, about 1 minute until incorporated. Reducing the mixer speed to low, mix in one-third of the flour mixer until just combined, add half of the buttermilk mixture. Repeat process again, adding half of the remaining flour mixture and all of the remaining buttermilk mixture. Mix in the rest of the flour mixture until combined thoroughly.
Into to the prepared pan, pour in the batter, smooth the top. Bake in the middle of the oven for 50 to 60 minutes until a wooden skewer comes out with a few moist crumbs. Rotate the pan halfway through baking. Let the cake cool for 10 minutes, then flip onto a wire rack and cool completely.
