Pumpkin Pound cake with Pumpkin Butter
Hello There!
As the leaves begin to turn their golden hues and the air carries a slight chill, it's clear that autumn has arrived. It's a season celebrated for cozy sweaters, pumpkin-spiced everything, and the irresistible aroma of freshly baked goods wafting through our homes.
Pound cakes have a special place in our hearts. They are simple, classic, and oh-so-comforting. But when you infuse them with the warm and nutty notes of pumpkin, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice they become a perfect warm and cozy snack or dessert for 2! This cake is a celebration of autumn's finest flavors.
Now…take a look at this pan! Isn’t it beautiful?? I have been not so patiently waiting to use this. I found it at one of my favorite places to shop. Can you guess where?? That’s right, Homegoods! This recipe is delicious on it’s own but baking it in this beautiful pan puts it over the top.
My Pumpkin Pound Cake is a dense, moist creation, with the signature buttery crumb that makes pound cakes so delightful. But it's the addition of pureed pumpkin and a blend of spices like cinnamon and pumpkin spice that elevates this cake to a whole new level. The result is a cake that embodies the essence of fall – hearty, aromatic, and utterly satisfying.
If the Pumpkin Pound Cake is the star, then Pumpkin Butter is its delightful sidekick. This velvety spread is made by combining pumpkin puree with a blend of warm spices and a touch of sweetness until it transforms into a luscious, creamy butter. Pumpkin Butter equals autumn in a jar, and it pairs perfectly with my pound cake. It is also great on toast, bagels, or muffins.
When you spread a generous dollop of Pumpkin Butter on a slice of Pumpkin Pound Cake, you're treated to a perfect balance of flavors. The spiced richness of the butter perfectly complements the cake's sweetness.
As you savor the flavor , you'll find yourself wrapped in the warmth of autumn. It's a time to appreciate the changing of the seasons, to indulge in the simple pleasures, and to share moments with loved ones. Whether enjoyed with a steaming cup of coffee in the morning or as a dessert after a hearty dinner, this delightful duo captures the very essence of fall.
So, if you haven't already, give in to the call of autumn. Whip up a Pumpkin Pound Cake, slather on that silky Pumpkin Butter, and enjoy a slice of autumn bliss! It's a simple but irresistible way to celebrate this wonderful time of year.
Lord Bless You,
