INGREDIENTS
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 tbsp orange zest grated
2 tbsp lemon zest grated
1 cup butter unsalted and softened
1 1/4 cup sugar white
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup orange juice
3/4 cup milk
5 eggs
Lemon Honey Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp lemon juice
5 tbsp orange juice

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously coat a bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk in the orange and lemon zest. Set aside.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, use the paddle attachment to mix the butter and sugar together for 2 to 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
To the bowl of your mixer add the lemon juice, orange juice, milk, the eggs and mix to combine. Begin adding the flour mixture a little bit at a time. Scrape the sides of the bowl as necessary. Mix for a couple minutes until the batter is smooth and all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan and bake for 50 min to an hour until done. Check the center of the cake with a toothpick and if it comes out clean it’s done.
To make the lemon orange glaze whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl.
Let cake cool on a wire rack. Once cool, drizzle the cake with the lemon honey glaze and decorate with additional lemon or orange zest if preferred.
