Ingredients
Scale
- 350 g Zucker
- 350 g Mehl
- 350 g Butter
- 6 Eier
- 100 ml Zitronensaft
- 1 Päckchen Backpulver
- 1 Päckchen Vanillezucker
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) using both top and bottom heat. Grease a Gugelhupf (bundt) pan thoroughly with butter and lightly dust it with flour to prevent the cake from sticking.
- Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl and beat them with an electric mixer on high speed until they become light and frothy. This process incorporates air into the eggs, helping the cake to rise and giving it a light texture.
- Add the softened butter, sugar, vanilla sugar, and freshly squeezed lemon juice to the beaten eggs. Continue mixing on medium speed until the mixture becomes creamy, pale, and homogeneous. This should take approximately 3-5 minutes. Make sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Mix well to ensure the baking powder is evenly distributed throughout the flour.
- Gradually add the flour and baking powder mixture to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula or the mixer on low speed to gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter. Mix just until no streaks of flour remain; be careful not to overmix, as this can make the cake dense.
- Pour the finished batter evenly into the prepared Gugelhupf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula if necessary.
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake the cake for at least 60 minutes. After 60 minutes, check for doneness by inserting a wooden skewer or toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with just a few crumbs, the cake is ready. If not, bake for an additional 5-10 minutes and check again.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven. While it is still hot, carefully invert the pan onto a wire rack to release the cake. Let the cake cool completely before handling further.
- After the cake has cooled, dust the top generously with powdered sugar before serving. Optionally, you can serve with additional lemon glaze or fresh lemon slices for extra flavor.
Notes
For an extra lemony flavor, you can add some grated lemon zest to the batter. Be sure to use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter and better rise. If you do not have a Gugelhupf pan, a standard bundt pan or loaf pan will also work. Always perform the skewer test to ensure the cake is fully baked in the center. The cake tastes best when fresh and pairs wonderfully with a cup of tea or coffee.
