Notes
This pound cake freezes well.
Awesome! I'm so happy to hear it worked out for you! Thank you so much for your comment! xo
Great I'm a diabetic it was good only one thing that I did was cut down on the sugar and divide it with Equal thank you
You can always add more cinnamon and spices to your own liking.
I followed the recipe to a “t” and it was just ok. It was nice and moist but I found it a little bland. I think next time I will increase the spices. Thank you for a good base.
Hi Angie, I wish I could give you more information, but all I've got is I've read baked goods take longer to bake because of the lower air pressure. You might need to increase oven temperature and/or increase cooking time. Start with one or the other and see how it works. Good luck!
How would this recipe for the pound cake work at an elevation of 6,500 feet? Thanks!
I'm so happy your enjoyed it Bonny! Thanks so much for commenting. xo
This recipe is amazing. Used 1/2 brown sugar and more spices but baked up wonderfully.
Great to know Mia! I love monk fruit as a healthy sugar substitute! That stuff is amazing! Thank you so much for letting us know your experience with making it Keto and I'm so glad it came out perfect for you. xo
Made it for my husband to enjoy as I am keto. Substituted coconut oil for the butter and used monk fruit rather than sugar. Came out perfect.
So happy to hear that Michelle! Thank you for trying it! xo
Very good!
Hi Soloa, you are correct, softened butter and cinnamon added with flour / dry ingredients. Updated in instructions. Thanks for letting me know and I hope it worked out for you.
When are you supposed to add the cinnamon? That isn’t specified in the instructions. Mine was in the over before I realized something was missing. Also, is the butter supposed to be softened?
Yes Edie! Hope you enjoy! xo
Is cinnamon the only spice ingredient?
Ready too Kelly! Thank you so much sweetie! xo
Mmmm I’m so ready for pumpkin everything!! This copycat bread looks better than the real thing!!
Donna that sounds so amazing! That should work well with this pound cake for sure! Wish I could have a slice! YUM! 😉
how would this be with ice cream? I WANT to layer it with butter pecan ice cream and whip cream topping. You mentioned it freezes well. I do this with other pound cake, but not so much with breads. THAnks
Purvi, so glad you tried it with mashed banana as an egg substitute! Your home-made pumpkin spice? Nice! I love it! Thanks so much!!
I tried this recipe today for some kids, and it was a hit! I used mashed banana as egg substitute and added my homemade pumpkin spice. Thank you for the recipe ?
You are too kind Katherine! It's pretty good though! 🙂 Pumpkin bread is the best!!
Oh dear ! How did I miss that one ? Only a headache and look what happens ............... Thank you dear Kim !
It looks sooooo soft!!! Isn't it the best how pumpkin baked goods are always so incredibly soft? I bet yours blows the Starbucks cake right out of the water!
Thanks so much Catherine!! I'd make it again and again!
Oh man, I would love to have a great big slice of that Pumpkin Pound Cake with a cup of coffee right now!! 😀 Looks so very moist and delicious!!
It's amazing! Thanks Kelsie, you would love it! xo
This looks so delicious and fluffy! And pumpkin-y. I've never actually had Starbucks pumpkin loaf but I want to try this one ASAP!
Yes please! This cake sounds so delicious, I think I need to double the recipe - one for me and one for the rest of the fam. Not that they don’t deserve it as much as me, but, you know, it’s pound cake! So so yum! Thanks for the recipe!
If the title begins with COPYCAT STARBUCKS, then my family is sure to devour it!! We are huge Starbucks' fans and sure spend a fair share. I'm sure the entire whole loaf will cost as much as one slice:) I'm gonna try it soon.
Thank you Marie! 🙂
