Bundt cakes often look better than they taste. That’s because, at the end of the day, you’re dumping a bunch of cake batter into a big heavy mold that needs to cook for a while to have stability, but also (very often) dries the cake out in the process. So how do you make a big, impressive-looking bundt cake that actually tastes good? You soak it as soon as it comes out of the oven. I’ve seen recipes for lemon cakes where you cook sugar with lemon juice just until the sugar dissolves to make a lemon syrup and then pour that over the cake (see:The Barefoot Contessa);但是我从未见过将生柠檬汁和糖和橄榄油混合在一起的地方,然后将其倒在蛋糕上。直到我在她的新食谱中遇到Claire Saffitz的Meyer Lemon Bundt蛋糕甜点是什么?。
冰球
这是与所有柠檬邦特蛋糕相抗衡的柠檬邦特蛋糕。不要炫耀,但我们在后院开始了邦特蛋糕之旅,从迈耶柠檬树上摘下迈耶柠檬(从技术上讲,我们租了)。

整个食谱中最困难的部分是第一步:黄油和计划。从妮可·鲁克(Nicole Rucker)中,我了解到,在涂上bundt锅时,您最好的策略是使用大量柔软的黄油并将其放入所有缝隙中。我在这里对黄油非常自由,因为您能想象有什么比遇到柠檬邦特蛋糕的麻烦更糟糕的了吗?

之后,这一切都是有趣的。您将柠檬皮将柠檬皮带入糖中,然后用手指捏住柠檬以提取油(我必须说非常令人满意)。


它进入烤箱烘烤(哇,它上升了);同时,您可以制作柠檬汁,橄榄油和糖的神奇药水。

釉那个蛋糕
当蛋糕从烤箱中脱颖而出时,您将其休息15分钟,然后在其中戳孔,然后开始用釉料刷牙。当您将其翻出并将釉倒在另一侧时,可怕的部分就会出现。坦白:我第一次把锅翻了过去,蛋糕没有脱落!即使所有这些黄油。因此,我将其翻转过来,并用削皮刀来确保它没有粘住。真正的麻烦点是中间部分,我必须像诺曼·贝茨(Norman Bates)一样刺入它才能完成。但是,我做了,然后我刷了整个华丽的蛋糕。

因此,下次您去制作邦特蛋糕的麻烦时,要釉面,或者您的努力是不值得的。(例外:酸奶油蛋糕这将是足够湿的。)用原始的梅耶柠檬汁,糖和橄榄油壳,这把蛋糕变成了明亮而辣的婚外情,在下一个晚宴上,您的客人会让您的客人感到高兴。不是IFS,或者是关于它的。

Claire Saffitz’s Meyer Lemon Bundt Cake
Ingredients
- Room temperature butter (about 3 to 4 tablespoons) and flour for the pan
- 3杯子多用途面粉
- 2 1/2茶匙s发酵粉
- 1茶匙钻石水晶犹太盐
- 1/2茶匙baking soda
- 1汤匙精细磨碎的Meyer Lemon Zest(大约2个柠檬)
- 1 3/4cup糖 + 2/3杯釉
- 3/4cupMeyer lemon juice, divided
- 1cup全牛奶,室温
- 2茶匙s香草精
- 4large eggs, room temparture
- 1 1/3杯子extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions
-
将烤箱预热至350。将柔软的黄油塞在您的12杯金属邦特锅周围:您真的想将其工作到缝隙中,或者面糊的任何地方都可能粘住(例如中型管)。当它涂得很好的时候,用足够的面粉倒入和拍拍四周,敲出多余的东西。
-
在一个中等大小的碗中,将面粉,发酵粉,盐和小苏打搅拌均匀。搁置。
-
在立式搅拌机的碗中,将柠檬直接浸入糖中(如果您喜欢额外的冰球,您可以比食谱要多的皮肤更高的皮革)。用手指将皮将其夹在糖中 - 应该闻起来很棒。
-
现在,您已经烤了柠檬,可以将它们榨汁。将1/4杯果汁与牛奶和香草混合在一起。搁置。
-
Add the eggs to the bowl of the stand mixer with the sugar and the zest and beat with the whisk attachment on medium speed until it looks thick and mousse-y, about 3 minutes. Very gradually stream in the 1 1/3 cups of olive oil and beat until the mixture looks smooth, thick, and emulsified.
-
Reduce the speed to low, add 1/3rd of the dry ingredients, 1/2 of the milk mixture, 1/3rd dry, 1/2 milk, and finish with the dry. Don't overwork here; finish mixing with a rubber spatula, scraping the bottom of the bowl, making sure it's evenly mixed.
-
Pour the batter into the Bundt pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean. Set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
-
同时,将剩余的1/2杯Meyer柠檬汁,2/3rds杯砂糖和2汤匙橄榄油一起搅拌,制作釉料。用叉子大力搅拌直到糖大部分溶解。
-
While the cake is still warm, use a toothpick to poke holes all over the surface and brush it with some of the glaze. Then very carefully use a paring knife to make sure the cake isn't sticking to the sides of the pan and flip it out on to a wire rack set over a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil. Poke more holes with a toothpick and brush with the rest of the glaze; any glaze that drips on to the cookie sheet, pour back on. Let the cake cool completely.
