Pineapple pound cake

 



Traditionally a pound cake is made with a pound each of Flour, Eggs, Sugar and Butter. This cake isn't light and fluffy like other cakes. It is dense and has a tight crumb. Although the plain vanilla pound cake is delicious on its own, I have added some Pineapple Jam in the batter to make it a bit more interesting. Serve this cake with a hot cup of tea or as dessert with some ice cream.


INGREDIENTS

2 cups Maida

3/4 cup Butter, Salted (At Room Temperature)

3/4 cup Sugar

4 Eggs (At Room Temperature)

1 cup Pineapple Jam

1cup Milk (At Room Temperature)

1 tsp Pineapple Essence

1 tsp Baking Powder

3/4 tsp Baking Soda

Sift together Maida, Baking Soda & Baking Powder

Cream the Butter & Sugar and add in the Eggs one at a time


METHOD

  • Sift together maida, baking soda and baking powder and set aside
  • Using an electric beater or whisk whip the butter till light and creamy.
  • Add in the sugar and continue to whisk till well combined.
  • Add in the eggs one at a time.
  • Next add the pineapple jam, essence and the milk.
  • Slowly add the flour and fold.
  • Pour the batter into a prepared loaf tin, gently tap it to get rid of any air bubbles. 
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes in an oven preheated to 180c.
  • Take out the cake from the oven and let it cool in the tin for 15 minutes.
  • Demould the cake and place it on a wire rack to cool completely before cutting.
  • Serve with a hot cup of tea.
