Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup poppy seed
  • 2 tablespoon grated lemon peel
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Lemon Glaze
  • 2 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • Mix all ingredients.

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour a Bundt cake pan or tube pan.

2

Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl on medium speed of an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time.

3

Mix flour, baking soda and salt. Beat into sugar mixture alternately with buttermilk until well blended. Stir in poppy seed, lemon peel and lemon juice. Spread in pan.

4

Bake until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Immediately poke holes in top of cake with a long-tined fork. Pour about two-thirds of the Lemon Glaze over the top. Cool 20 minutes. Invert onto a serving plate. Remove pan. Spread with remaining glaze.
