As I continue this Gluten Free journey, I’m actually not finding difficulty making and eating things that I normally would. Sure, they may not taste exactly the same, but they still taste good.
In order to make this cake gluten free, all I did was swap regular flour for Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Baking Flour. You use the gluten free flour just as you would use any other all-purpose flour. It makes baking easy and you don’t have to figure out all of these conversions.
I have yet to try the flour with any other baked goods, besides cupcakes, but both turned out amazing!
This pound cake would be good for breakfast, snack, dessert, or any time. I think it’s be delicious topped with greek yogurt and peanut butter. It’s also really delicious by itself!
The recipe was inspired by Spicy Southern Kitchen’s pound cake recipe.
