How to Make Itty Bitty Pound Cake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a mini loaf pan (approximately 5x3 inches).
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup (113g) softened unsalted butter and 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in 1 large egg until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1/4 cup (60ml) buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon of your favorite extract (almond, orange, coconut, rum, etc.).
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared mini loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
