directions

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Spray a light coat of cooking spray onto a 10-inch bundt pan.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a medium bowl.
  • In a large bowl, beat butter spread until smooth, about 2 minutes on medium with a hand mixer.
  • Beat in sugar until well blended.
  • Beat in whole eggs, one at a time, and then beat in the egg white.
  • Beat in the zest and the poppy seeds.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the buttermilk and juice concentrate.
  • Alternately fold the flour mixture and buttermilk mixture into the egg mixture, beginning and ending with the flour, until just blended.
  • DO NOT OVERMIX.
  • Pour batter into bundt pan, and gently tap pan on the counter to release any air pockets.
  • Bake until cake pulls away from the side of the pan, and until a toothpick comes out clean from the center (about 40-45 minutes).
  • Transfer pan to cooling rack, and let cool 10 minutes.
  • With a small knife, loosen the sides of the cake, and invert onto the rack to cool completely.
  • For the glaze:

  • In a small bowl, stir the water, juice concentrate and zest. Stir in powdered/confectioners sugar, until just pourable.
  • Drizzle over cooled cake.
