Description

This easy lemon lover's Bundt cake recipe uses sour cream, oil, lemon juice, zest, extract, and pudding. It is a moist, lemony cake that is easy to make.

Ingredients

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package lemon cake mix
1 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 (3 ounce) package instant lemon pudding mix
zest of 1 lemon, or more to taste
1 tablespoon poppy seeds, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon lemon extract

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a fluted tube cake pan.
2 Beat cake mix, sour cream, eggs, vegetable oil, lemon juice, pudding mix, lemon zest, poppy seeds, and lemon extract together in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Increase speed to medium; beat for 3 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Tap the pan firmly a few times, then shake it gently to loosen the cake. Place the wire rack over the pan and invert to release cake onto the rack; cool completely.
