It is bundt time again and I am very excited because I am hosting this one today!! My very first time hosting anything!! So I am thrilled to bring you my theme of Easter with Mini Lemon Spring Bundts. What does Easter mean to you? Is it a deeply religious holiday or one where family and friends get together or little kids hunt for chocolate? Well, it is all of that for me. Anyway you celebrate it, it also signifies Spring!! A rebirth of all that we have waited for all winter long.
I had all sorts of ideas for this theme but none of them really came to fruition for me in my mind. Logistically they just didn’t make sense so I went with lemon. The flavor of lemon is so fresh and lively and it really screams spring for me and Easter!! Try also our Lemon Pie Bars.
Fresh and lemony, easy and pretty!! These little bundts will take you a long way from breakfast to dessert!!
Not only did I get six gorgeous little bundts from this recipe but I got 6 yummy muffins. This recipe will make one large bundt also!!
Delight in making these gorgeous little bundts for your Easter or spring celebrations. ENJOY!!

Beautiful and elegant Tara! Easter in Greece is both a very religious holiday and a time for the families to get together and celebrate the resurrection of Christ and the coming of Spring! It is one of my favorite times of the year. Thank you for hosting the #BundtBakers this month and for choosing this very inspirational theme! Happy Easter

Linda | Brunch with Joy says
Yay for this recipe – just bought my first bundt cake pan and this recipe is on the queue. I was not a fan of lemon, but that got changed after baking some lemony cakes. I bet this will convince my love for lemons, too.
Noshing with the Nolands says
It has a mild lemon flavor not too intense, plus they are super moist. I think you will like it!!
Patty Haxton Anderson says
You know from recent posts that I am all about “mini” so I am going to share on my FB page Tara. These sound so good and look divine.
