This easy Lemon Bundt Cake with Poppyseeds is a lovely dessert cake to take to potlucks and barbecues. Made with a boxed cake mix in a bundt pan with a light lemon glaze.

My friend Katia gave me this recipe and I made a few changes to the original recipe. It is a perfect cake for spring or summer and had poppyseeds too!

Lemon Bundt Cake

Hello Friends! How is your week going? Today I am sharing a delicious dessert idea that is perfect for the season.

 

Lemon Bundt Cake

This cake is light and flavorful. I just used a few poppy seeds, but you can add more if you like.

List of main ingredients:

Boxed Cake Mix – You can use a Lemon or Yellow Cake Mix. If you use a Yellow cake mix, add 1 teaspoon of lemon extract.

Instant Pudding - I recommend Vanilla for a creamy tasting cake.

Poppy Seeds - I prefer soaking these in milk a couple of hours prior to baking. But you can skip soaking them if you run out of time.

    What an awesome recipe. I have a lemon pound cake recipe to share soon but not this! We do have a bundt pan. Doesn't every household need one?

    Scrumptious! I love lemon anything and this sounds soooo good. What could I replace the sherry with? I don't drink any alcohol so what would be a good replacement? I would love to have you come and link up to my party on my blog and share your post with us. https://karinskottage.com/2020/06/centerpiece-wednesday-linky-party.html
