Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake

This Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake is SO delicious and so simple. A lot of my cakes and desserts on this page are a little extra and over the top, so the next few days I am going to post a few simple bundt cakes! I love a good bundt cake. They are a little more dense than the normal layered cake, but that is what makes them delicious! I got this idea from my favorite lemon and poppy seed muffin. Why not turn one of my favorite muffins into a cake??

My favorite part of this bundt cake is the lemon glaze. It just brings it all together and adds a touch of sweetness. Plus, you get a little bit of tartness from the lemon. Making the glaze is super simple. All you need is a little lemon juice and powdered sugar! Super simple recipe to top off such a pretty cake!
