A classic and delicious dessert that’s so easy to make it’s ideal for cooking (and eating) with kids!

The pound cake is a timeless classic. So called because the recipe traditionally called for a pound each of sugar, butter, eggs and flour, it is a moist and buttery, melt-in-the-mouth sponge marvel. This recipe provides a modern, gluten free twist on the traditional pound cake recipe, adjusting the measures to make sure you get a super fluffy crumb with a golden crust. Twin it with your morning coffee for a sweet start in the morning, or top it with fruit and cream and serve as dessert. It keeps really well too, making it the perfect accompaniment to summer picnics in the park.
