Traditionally made with a pound each of eggs, flour, butter, and sugar, classic pound cakes are often dry, dense, and flavorless.<\/p>\n

This recipe for lemon pound cake doesn’t follow the traditional ingredient ratios or flavor profile, and it’s certainly not dry or dense! The combination of sour cream and oil in the batter keeps the cake moist, while cake flour, baking powder, and baking soda make for a slightly lighter and fluffier pound cake. <\/p>\n

The finishing touch is the two-ingredient lemon glaze. I included freshly squeezed lemon juice and zest in the batter as well, but that extra punch of lemon flavor in the glaze takes this pound cake over the top. <\/p>\n

Glazed lemon pound cake is perfect for summer parties and potlucks or enjoying alongside your afternoon coffee.<\/p>\n
