FAQs
Can I Use a Bundt Pan Instead of a Loaf Pan?
Yes! This recipe works beautifully in a bundt pan. Just make sure to grease and flour the pan thoroughly, and check for doneness starting at the 60-minute mark.
Can I Add Mix-Ins to the Batter?
Absolutely! Pound cake is versatile, so you can fold in chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruit. Just be sure to lightly toss any add-ins with a bit of flour before folding them into the batter to prevent them from sinking.
How Do I Keep Pound Cake Moist?
Pound cake is naturally dense, but to keep it moist, avoid overbaking and wrap any leftovers tightly to prevent drying out. Adding a glaze or syrup can also help lock in moisture.
