A traditional British pound cake got its name because it was made of a pound each of flour, butter, sugar, fruit and eggs. I particularly like this recipe because it is much lighter than most traditional recipes without sacrificing an ounce of taste. Be sure to try the variation for the Lemon Pound Cake.

This recipe can be found on page 308 of my cookbook, Celeste’s Best Gluten-Free, Allergen-Free Recipes.
