Goose Egg Pound Cake


With the arrival of goose eggs, we've updated one of our favorite recipes! A true "pound" cake requires only 2-3 goose eggs. Ahhh, the richness. You'll love what you've discovered.

What you need:

  • 4 cups sifted all purpose flour

  • 1 tsp. baking powder

  • ½ tsp. salt

  • 1 pound butter

  • 1 cup milk

  • 2 tsp. vanilla or lemon extract, or 1 of each. (Sometimes I use 1 tsp. of mace, no lemon)

  • 3 cups sugar

  • 2-3 goose eggs

Directions:

  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together. Set aside.

  • Have butter, milk, and eggs at room temperature!

  • Cream butter until very light and fluffy – then add sugar gradually, creaming all the while.

  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each.

  • Combine milk and flavoring.

  • Add dry ingredients alternately with the milk/extract mixture - - - beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Do this in four or five additions.

  • Pour into a well greased and floured bundt pan and a small loaf pan. (makes a nice little small loaf as well)

  • Bake at 300 degrees for 1 hour and 20 minutes. This may vary depending on your oven. Enjoy!
