  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup plain or vanilla yogurt (can also substitute with sour cream)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 5 teaspoons grated lemon zest (add more if you desire a stronger lemon flavor)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

INGREDIENTS FOR LEMON GLAZE

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray your mini bundt cake pan with cooking spray. 

  2. In medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt into 1 bowl.

  4. Slowly whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.

  6. Evenly pour the batter into prepped mini bundt pan; about 1/4 cup of batter per spot. 

  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tooth pick placed in the center of the bundt cake comes out mostly clean.

HOW TO MAKE LEMON CITRUS GLAZE

  1. Prepare the glaze by stirring together the powdered sugar and the lemon juice. If you want a thinner glaze, add more lemon juice.

  2. Drizzle the glaze on top of the cakes after they have cooled.
