Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 ⅓ cups vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs at room temperature*
  • 1 ½ cups milk I used whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

For the glaze:

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon orange zest

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spray bundt pan with cooking spray and then coat with flour. I put a pretty good layer of the cooking spray on and then sprinkle the bottom with flour, moving it around so it coats every crevice.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together sugar and oil until well combined.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking until each one is combined.
  • Add milk, vanilla extract, almond extract, and lemon extract.
  • Stir in flour, salt, and baking powder with a spatula, mixing until just combined.
  • Pour into prepared bundt pan, spreading it out evenly.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 50-55 minutes. The top should be golden and a toothpick should come out with just some crumbs, not batter.
  • Let cool in the pan for about 30 minutes and then invert onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Once cool make the glaze by stirring together all glaze ingredients.
  • Drizzle over the cake.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

*To quickly get eggs to room temperature, set them in a bowl submerged in warm water for 10 minutes.
