Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/4 cup poppy seeds
1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (for glaze)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a Bundt pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract and lemon zest.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with milk and lemon juice, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
