got blueberries and raspberries? make this Blueberry Pound Cake in T&T. so good. thanks Gay

[angak1]

I add some vanilla or lemon zest to the batter. and I mixed blueberries and raspberries this time. It's such a nice cake---not too sweet and lower in fat. work buddies made short work of it. I baked it for about 70 minutes.http://www.eat.at/swap/forum6/91_Blueberry_Pound_Cake_-_Featured_in_Better_Homes_&_Gardens

You are so very welcome, Ang. One of my favorite recipes.....so happy you like it.

I don't stir in the milk at the end---I add it to the batter before the berries. not sure why they

have you stir it in at the end. just sounded odd to me. but then, I often change up recipes.

2 questions: Does it need a touch of lemon rind? If I were to bake it in loaf pans,

is there something lost in its appeal?

 

[angak1]

I like to add the lemon rind. I can't seem to make a cake batter w/o some kind of essence, either

vanilla or lemon or almond need to be added or the batter is just blah to me. loaf pans should be very nice. it's a plain-er cake, as it doesn't have a frosting or glaze. just a dusting of powdered sugar is nice.

I have this in the oven right now, thank you. Darn I forgot the vanilla...!

Very sweet and blueberry-y. Would be good with creme anglaise. I added the berries right at the end
