Steps
To make this soft bundt cake you only need a few simple ingredients that together create a tall, soft and fragrant cake.
BUTTER AND SUGAR: Beat the very soft butter well with the powdered sugar, then add the grated lemon zest, add the eggs one at a time, and then the lemon juice and the milk.
PREPARE THE DRY INGREDIENTS: Sift the dry ingredients with the baking powder and fold them into the already beaten mixture. Cut the apple into pieces and fold it into the batter.
POUR AND BAKE: Pour everything into a bundt cake pan (about 9.5 in), buttered and floured, and bake at 356°F for about 35–40 minutes — always adjust according to your oven and perform the toothpick test. Once baked, let it cool completely and then dust with powdered sugar.
Tips…
If you like a cake rich in apples you can add more apples on top; you can replace the lemon with orange and the milk with yogurt.
