3- Bake the lemon Bundt cake for about 35 minutes.
1- While the cake is baking, prepare a lemon juice syrup to soak it when it comes out of the oven.
2- Squeeze the lemon you have zested into the cake batter.
3- Mix the juice with about 40 g of powdered sugar, whisking well to dissolve any lumps. Set aside.
4- When you take the bundt cake out of the oven, let it cool down for a few minutes before unmolding it, then put it back in its mold immediately to soak it without dripping.
Prick the bottom of the cake in several places with a wooden pick and gently pour the lemon juice over the cake until it has all been absorbed.
