\"Meyer<\/p>\n

One of the things that I look forward to in the winter is meyer lemon season. Meyer lemons<\/a> are hybrid fruits, a cross between a mandarin orange and a lemon that has all the flavor of the lemon without the acidity. They’re really easy to work with and make for a nice change in recipes. In this Meyer Lemon Bundt Cake, for instance, there is a lot of lemon juice but the finished cake comes out with a smooth and somewhat mellow – as opposed to bright and tangy – lemon flavor.<\/p>\n

Apart from the Meyer lemons themselves, this is a fairly standard bundt cake. It is moist, with a tight crumb and is especially good with a little bit of glaze on top. I included a good amount of lemon zest to emphasize the lemon flavor and opted not to include vanilla extract so that the citrus wouldn’t have any competition for the spotlight in this cake. The cake will keep, well-wrapped or stored in an airtight container, for a couple of days, so this is a nice cake to bake on a weekend and nibble at during the week.<\/p>\n

Now, if you can’t get Meyer lemons, you can easily substitute regular lemon juice into this recipe and get great results. If fact, if you’re not too familiar with meyer lemons, you might want to try giving both versions a try (or simply compare the lemons side-by-side) to get a feel for the differences between the two.<\/p>\n
