A Southern Grace: Maple Yogurt Pound Cake

Maple Yogurt Pound Cake

Yum

Makes 2 9x5-inch loaves
Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, softened
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 2-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon cardamom
  • 1 cup maple Greek yogurt (I used Greek Gods)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease and flour two 9x5-inch loaf pans or one tube pan.
With a mixer, cream butter and coconut oil together for a minute or two, until fluffy.
Gradually add the sugar, and beat for a while, 5 minutes or so. You want an extremely light and creamy blend.
Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition.
Stir dry ingredients together in a bowl and add to mixer alternately with yogurt, starting with the flour and ending with the flour.
Mix in vanilla.
Pour into prepared pan(s) and bake for 65-75 minutes for loaves or 90-110 minutes for a tube pan, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean.
