26. Caramel Apple Pound Cake

We know it seems like pound cake takes forever to bake. It may seem tempting to pull it out sooner, but because there are so many delicious apples in the batter, it takes a while for all that excess moisture to cook out. We LOVE how chock-full of fruit this cake is, but if you’re after a shorter cook time, reduce the number of apples by half.

29. Southern Pecan Pound Cake

If there is one classic dessert recipe that I go back to time and time again, it’s pound cake. It has stood the test of time for a reason. Every southern cook has a favorite pound cake recipe. You can put so many little twists on the basic recipe and it also makes a great base for other desserts. One of my favorite ways to serve pound cake is with fresh strawberries and whipped cream on top. And, of course, it uses lots of my favorite, good-for-you eggs: Eggland’s Best eggs.
