Yield: 12 servings
Ingredients
  • 12 tbsp unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup dark brown sugar
  • 3 cups fresh cranberries
  • 2½ cups all purpose flour
  • 2½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • zest and juice of 2 meyer lemons, divided
  • 1½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • ¾ cup buttermilk
For the glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1½ tbsp meyer lemon juice
Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 350F. Grease a bundt pan with baking spray or butter. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle the cranberries over the sugar in an even layer. Set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix together the sugar and lemon zest with your fingers, rubbing the zest into the sugar until it is fragrant. This helps the zest to release its essential oils. Add the butter to the stand mixer bowl and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4-5 minutes. Beat in the vanilla, then add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. In a measuring cup, stir together the buttermilk with 2 tbsp of the lemon juice. Turn the mixer to low and add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk mixture. Mix until just combined, then spread the batter into the bundt pan, covering the cranberries.
  5. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until golden brown and just set. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 15 minutes, then invert the cake onto a serving plate and remove the pan. Allow to cool completely.
  6. To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar and meyer lemon juice. Drizzle over the top of the cake as desired.
