Strawberry Pineapple Pound Cake: A Moist and Fruity Dessert Favorite

  • Author: Dorothy Miller

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup sour cream or buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 cup diced fresh strawberries (or thawed and drained frozen)
  • 1/2 cup well-drained crushed pineapple

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease and flour a Bundt or loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 3–5 minutes).
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Mix in the vanilla extract and sour cream (or buttermilk) until smooth.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour and baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
  6. Gently fold in the strawberries and pineapple with a spatula, being careful not to overmix.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan. Tap on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  8. Bake for 60–75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  9. Cool in pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
