Ingredients:

All-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for the pan (2 1/2cups)

Unsalted butter (1 cup) and extra for the pot

Baking soda (1/2 teaspoon)

Baking powder (1/2 teaspoon)

Kosher salt (1 teaspoon)

Granulated sugar (3 cups)

Plain full-fat Greek yogurt (1 cup)

Finely grated lemon zest, plus 6 tablespoons lemon juice (2 tablespoons)

Large eggs (6)

Confectioners’ sugar (1 cup)

Process:

Pre-Heat the oven to 325° F. Butter & flour a 12-cup Bundt pot. In a average bowl, whip as one the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.

By using an electric blender, hit the butter, lemon zest, and granulated sugar on average-high till light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in 4 tablespoons of the lemon juice and then the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Decrease the mixer speed to small. Put in half the flour mixture, then the yogurt, and then the remaining flour mixture. Mix just till united (do not over-mix).

Shift the batter to the prepared pan and heat till a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 65 to 75 minutes. Cool the cake in the pot for 30 minutes, and then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small sink, whip together the confectioners’ sugar and 1 of the remaining tablespoons of lemon juice till smooth, adding the remaining lemon juice as required to make a thick, but pourable glaze.
