Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 3 c. flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 sticks butter
  • 2 c. sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons poppyseeds
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla
  • zest and juice of 4 Meyer lemons
  • 1 c. milk

For the glaze:

  • 1 c. powdered sugar
  • Juice of 1 Meyer lemon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a Bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl combine the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix well and set aside.
  • In another large bowl combine the butter and sugar. Beat until smooth.
  • Add in the eggs and stir until combined.
  • Add half the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix well.
  • Add in the poppyseeds, vanilla, lemon juice and zest, and half the milk and stir well.
