  • Author: Ava Reynolds
  • Total Time: 10 minute

Ingredients

– 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 2 cups granulated sugar
– 4 large eggs
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 1 teaspoon almond extract
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– 1 cup whole milk
– 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
– Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)


Instructions

Creating this Strawberry Pound Cake is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch loaf pan or bundt pan.
2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Mix in the vanilla and almond extracts.
4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the flour mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the batter until evenly distributed.
7. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Once the cake has cooled completely, dust the top with powdered sugar for an elegant finish.
10. Slice and Serve: Cut the cake into slices and enjoy the delicious blend of strawberry and buttery cake.
