These Lemon Bundt Cakes are Egg-free, Butter-free and made in just one bowl with Olive Oil and Greek Yogurt.
Seriously! These Lemon Bundt Cakes are bursting with flavor and I so wish you were there when they were baking in the oven. The combination of yogurt with fresh Meyer lemon juice is intoxicating.
I’m a big fan of olive oil and yogurt baked goods. I like my desserts light, moist and fluffy and Olive Oil and Yogurt get you those results. Most often, I make Olive Oil Date Cakes and Olive Oil Orange Cakes for snacks or tea time cakes and those are always a hit with friends and families.
The best part about these Lemon Yogurt Bundt Cakes is, you can whip up the batter in one bowl. Pour. Bake.
That’s all.
Honestly, I can’t stop snacking on these beauties. I’m thinking about making another batch soon.
