For 12 portions

Ingredients

For the batter:

2 to 3 cups of semi-coarse flour (depending on consistency)
1 cup of sugar
3 eggs (yolks and whites separated)
½ cup of oil
Milk as needed (approx. ½ cup)
½ packet of baking powder
Zest of half a lemon
Cocoa (to taste)
Raisins (soaked in rum or water)

Preparation procedure

Prepare the ingredients: Separate the yolks from the whites. In one bowl beat the yolks with the sugar until light and frothy. Pour in the oil, lemon zest and part of the milk. Gradually add the flour mixed with the baking powder.
Whip the egg whites: Whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt into stiff peaks and gently fold them into the batter. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more milk.
Prepare the pan: Thoroughly grease the bundt pan and dust it with flour. Pour part of the batter into the pan, sprinkle with raisins and a little cocoa. Then pour in the remaining batter.
Bake until golden: Bake the bundt cake in a preheated oven at 150 °C for approximately 30–45 minutes. Check doneness with a skewer – it should come out dry.
Serving: After baking, let the bundt cake cool slightly and then turn it out of the pan. You can dust it with powdered sugar or drizzle with lemon glaze.
