Easy Cranberry And White Chocolate Pound Cake Food

HEALTHY WHITE CHOCOLATE CRANBERRY POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F, and coat a 9x5" loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• To prepare the cake, whisk together the flour, ginger, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the butter, egg whites, vanilla extract, and liquid stevia. Add in the Greek yogurt, stirring until no large lumps remain. Stir in 6 tablespoons of milk. Alternate between adding the flour mixture and remaining milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture, and stirring just until incorporated. (For best results, add the flour mixture in 4 equal parts.) Gently fold in the cranberries and white chocolate.
• Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes or until the top feels firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring the pound cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Once the cake has fully cooled and just before serving it, prepare the drizzle by stirring together the cream cheese, milk, and liquid stevia in a small bowl. Transfer the mixture to a small zip-topped bag, cut off a tiny piece of one corner, and drizzle on top of the cooled cake.

EASY CRANBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE POUND CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 170c, 325F. Grease and line your baking tin. See here for how to line
• Get all your ingredients ready, i.e zest and juice the lemon, sieve the flour, and add the salt and baking powder to the flour etc. Pop the cranberries in a bowl or bag, and add the 1 Tablespoon of flour. Coat the cranberries with the flour then remove the excess flour. (This stops the fruit sinking during the bake).
• Start with making the cake batter by creaming the butter and sugar until a pale light colour. To achieve a softer texture cake, it is really important to cream the butter and sugar until almost white and a little fluffy. See the photo below.
• Slowly add the beaten eggs and milk to the mixer, on a low speed setting, a bit at a time. If the mixture starts to curdle or split, add a spoonful of your sieved flour, keep on adding the eggs and milk and a bit of flour if necessary, until all the eggs are added.
• Once combined, add the lemon juice, and zest, and the rest of the flour. Right at the end, fold in the cranberries and white chocolate.
• Transfer the cake mixture to the greased and lined loaf tin. Place in the oven for 1 hr to 1 hr and 5 minutes. Test if done after 55 minutes by placing a skewer in the centre of the cake and make sure it comes out clean. Every oven is different so cook times will vary a little.
• Have a cup of tea and wait!
• Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container. This cake is best eaten the following day, although it doesn't usually last that long!
