Hello Friends!
It’s a foggy morning here at ASW Homestead, and we’re in need of a little comfort—and what better way to lift our spirits than with a warm slice of pound cake? This recipe has been part of our family’s kitchen for years. In fact, I’ve made it so many times I no longer even glance at the recipe card!
It’s also one of my go-to bakes in the spring when the hens are laying more eggs than we can keep up with. The simplicity of this cake, combined with its rich flavor and dense, buttery texture, makes it a timeless favorite here on the homestead.
You’ll find the printable recipe card below. 😊
This pound cake is a versatile treat that shows up at breakfast tables, brunch gatherings, and potlucks alike. On special mornings, we’ll top each slice with fresh strawberries and a dollop of homemade whipped cream. During springtime, it often appears on the table simply dusted with powdered sugar or served with a spoonful of apple butter.
It also makes a great make-ahead dessert—just freeze a few slices and pull them out when company’s coming or when you need a little afternoon pick-me-up.
We hope this pound cake recipe brings a bit of joy and sweetness to your home. It’s one of those recipes that has stood the test of time—simple, delicious, and comforting.
