Description

A moist and flavorful pound cake swirled with cranberry sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 + ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cranberry sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 1 lb. loaf pan (8×4-inches) with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine eggs, yogurt, and sugar, and beat with a hand mixer until smooth.
  4. Add in oil and vanilla extract and continue to beat until smooth.
  5. Gradually add in the dry ingredients and beat until just combined (about 30-60 seconds). Do not overmix.
  6. Pour half the batter into a parchment-lined loaf pan. Scoop 2-3 dollops of cranberry sauce (half the sauce) on top, then pour the remaining batter over.
  7. Add remaining cranberry sauce in dollops on top. Use a toothpick to swirl it.
  8. Bake for 60-70 minutes, until edges are browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for an hour. Remove from pan and cool on a wire rack for another hour or two.
