Pound Cake Recipe




Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon corn flour

  • 1 ¼ cups sugar

  • 4 eggs

  • 2 sticks (228g) butter

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

    1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and prepare a loaf pan with grease.

    2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, corn flour, and baking powder until well combined.

    3. Using a food processor or mixer, combine the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Process or mix for approximately 10 seconds.

    4. Gradually pour the melted butter into the running food processor or mixer over a period of about 30 seconds.
