• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Zest of 2 lemons
• 1 cup sour cream

Preparation

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a Bundt cake pan.
2. Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Incorporate Lemon Zest: Gently fold in the lemon zest, ensuring even distribution of the citrusy goodness.
6. Alternate Dry Ingredients and Sour Cream: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sour cream. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
7. Pour into Bundt Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan, spreading it evenly.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cooling: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Serve: Once cooled, slice and serve the Tea Time Bundt Cake with Lemon. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple lemon glaze for extra sweetness.
