Strawberry Lemon Yogurt Bundt Cake

Strawberries - as Far as the Eye can See! So,


Let's try it - Strawberry Lemon Yogurt Bundt Cake. 

This is a fairly simple bundt cake recipe and if you prefer blackberries or raspberries, they will work just as well as the strawberries. I bought fresh, organic strawberries, plain Greek yogurt and borrowed a couple of lemons from my neighbors backyard tree ;).

Ingredients - cake

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened or low-fat margarine
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 Tb. lemon juice, about 1 lemon
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus 1/4 cup
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 8 oz. plain Greek yogurt
  • 16 oz. fresh strawberries, coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
Ingredients - icing
  • 2 Tb. lemon juice, about 1 lemon
  • 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions - cake

1. Preheat oven to 325. Spray the inside of a 10 inch Bundt pan with Pam for Baking or some similar no-stick baking spray. 
2. Sift together (or using a fine mesh strainer) 2 1/2 cups flour, baking soda & salt.









3. Mix together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
5. Stir in 1 Tb. lemon juice.
6. Alternate beating in the flour mixture and the yogurt, mixing just until incorporated. 










7. Toss the berries with the remaining 1/4 cup of flour and gently mix them into the batter. 










8. Pour the batter into the Bundt pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. 











9. Allow to cool for 30 - 40 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely. 











Instructions - icing

1. Once cooled whisk together 2 Tb. of lemon juice and the powdered sugar. Drizzle over the top of the cake. Ready to serve!
