Description
A lemon syrup is poured onto this elegant cake after cooking, giving it a delicious burst of fresh lemon flavor and a nice, moist consistency. Not only do lemons give the cake a wonderful flavor, but they're also a good source of vitamin C. Try serving with a dollop of plain yogurt or freshly whipped cream.
Ingredients
1 1⁄4 c
Raw sugar or granulated fructose 1⁄3 c
Safflower oil 1 1⁄4 c
Milk 1⁄4 c
Fresh lemon juice 1 Tbsp
Lemon rind, finely grated 3 c
Unbleached white flour 2 Tbsp
egg replacer powder or BiPRO* 1 tspn
Baking powder 1 tspn
Baking soda 1⁄4 tspn
Salt 2 1⁄2 Tbsp
Poppy seeds 2 c
Sifted confectioners sugar 1 tspn

MilkInstructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Oil a 12-cup bundt cake pan. In a medium bowl whisk the sugar, oil, milk, lemon juice, and lemon rind together.
- In a large bowl whisk all the dry ingredients together. Add the wet mixture to the dry. Mix well with an electric mixer on medium speed, or use a whisk. Pour the batter into the cake pan. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the cake from the pan and cool for a further 5 minutes. Mix the glaze ingredients until smooth.
- Pour 1/3 of the glaze on top of the cake, then place the cake back into the bundt pan. With a wooden toothpick, poke holes into the top of the cake. Pour the remaining glaze over the cake. Let the cake sit until the glaze is absorbed before slicing.
Notes
*BiPRO is an egg substitute powder made from whey that can sometimes be found in large health food stores. Use egg replacer powder if unavailable.
