Light and tender Bundt cake with the right amount of bright citrus.
If you are looking for a tender, light, and flavorful Bundt cake, I have your answer right here! This white Bundt cake is an absolute crowd-pleaser.
ABOUT THIS WHITE BUNDT CAKE RECIPE
- This Bundt cake uses only egg whites. Egg whites make a good structure and also create a bright off-white color in the cake.
- The is a mix of butter and oil in this recipe, Butter adds more flavor, and oil keeps the cake moister for longer.
- A small amount of freshly squeezed lemon juice adds a ton of fresh citrus flavor. Freshly squeezed citrus juice infuses the cake with an amazingly refreshing taste.
- This White Bundt cake has a very velvety and smooth texture that melts in your mouth.
- Use of yogurt or sour cream creates a velvety texture. (I used 6%)
- I have used lemon glaze on top of this Bundt cake to make a good balance in the citrus flavor. Glaze comes together very easily in no time. The glaze adds more flavor to the cake and makes the cake look very pretty.
- Make sure the egg whites, yogurt, and butter are at room temperature. Beat the egg whites separately to form stiff peaks. Be sure to wipe the mixing bowl, and whisk the attachment. This removes any oil from the tools, and egg whites wipe up with no problem.
- This cake can be made in a round cake pan or a sheet pan. If making in the round pan reduce the bake time by 8-10 minutes.
-Be sure to tap the pan on the counter to release any bubbles. Bundt cake and pound cake pans are deeper than the usual cake pans, therefore they tend to hold on to the bubbles.
