    4 lg Eggs; room temp
    2 ts Lemon extract
    3 c A-P flour
    1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Baking soda

    MMMMM---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------

    1 tb Grated orange zest

    Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

    Grease and flour a 10" fluted tube (bundt) pan.

    addition. Beat in extract. In another bowl, whisk
    together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; add
    to creamed mixture alternately with buttermilk, beating

    Transfer to prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick
    inserted in center comes out clean, 45-50 minutes.

    Poke holes in warm cake using a fork or wooden skewer.
    Mix glaze ingredients; spoon slowly over cake. Cool 15
    minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack; cool
    completely. If desired, sprinkle with additional zest
    before serving.
