Lemon Poppy Seed Loaf
Ingredients
  • 2 1/4 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup poppy seeds
  • 1/4 cup finely grated lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup buttermilk
Instructions
1
Begin by preheating your oven to a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius. Next, take some time to thoroughly grease the interior and exterior of a fluted tube-shaped baking vessel, such as a Bundt pan. Make sure to apply an adequate amount of lubricant.
2
In a separate mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar and softened butter using an electric mixer. Continue blending until the mixture reaches a light, airy consistency; then proceed to add eggs one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
3
Once all eggs have been added, decrease the mixer's speed and incorporate poppy seeds, lemon peel, and vanilla extract into the mixture.
4
In a separate container, whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with buttermilk as you go.
5
Pour the batter into your prepared tube pan and place it in the oven to bake. Continue baking until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake emerges clean, requiring approximately 65 to 75 minutes in the oven.
