Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Pound Cake with Triple Citrus Flavor.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and grease and flour a 10-inch tube pan.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer until creamy. Add the vegetable oil and continue to beat until well combined. Gradually add the sugar, beating until the mixture is light and fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Step 5
Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and lemon extract until evenly distributed.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared tube pan and smooth the top.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for about 90 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack before removing it from the pan.
