Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ¼ cups (11 ¼ oz/319 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ¼ cups (10 oz/284 g) butter, softened
  • 2 ⅔ cups (21 oz/592 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon zest
  • 6 large eggs, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C). Butter and flour a 15-cup bundt pan, then remove excess flour and set it aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt; whisk together and set aside.
  3. In a stand mixer bowl, cream the butter, sugar, and lemon zest on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  4. Lower the speed to medium, adding the eggs one at a time while mixing well. Follow with buttermilk and lemon juice until blended.
  5. Reduce speed to low and gradually mix in the flour mixture until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in diced strawberries, then transfer the batter to the prepared bundt pan.
