Who doesn’t love a nice pound cake? It’s amazing in the summer to top with fresh strawberries and whipped cream.

But what if you added the strawberries to the pound cake itself?

Better yet, what if the recipe was super easy to make?

That’s exactly what you’ll get from this recipe – an easy & delicious strawberry pound cake.

Not a fan of strawberries? No problem. Try this blueberry lemon pound cake or this lemon bundt cake instead.

Strawberry pound cake meets strawberry yogurt cake with this tasty recipe.

If you love strawberries, you are going to love this pound cake.

Perfect for Dessert or Breakfast

Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream for a delicious dessert. I especially love to serve this sweet treat up as a Mother’s Day dessert.

Or, enjoy a slice in the morning with some fresh berries and a cup of tea

Either way, you are going to love this easy strawberry cake recipe.

2 slices of strawberry pound cake on a red plate with a strawberry on the side. A glass of milk with a red and white straw is in background.

Next time I make this strawberry pound cake I think I will add about 1/4 cup white chocolate chips to the batter. White chocolate compliments strawberry so well, I think it would truly be amazing.

But, hey, if one of you wants to try adding some white chocolate chips before then, go for it. Then, be sure to come back and let us know how it comes out.

Have extra strawberries? Make a batch of these homemade strawberry muffins, strawberry scones, or mini strawberry trifles as well — you will not be disappointed!

    I had a bunch of Chobani Strawberry Fruit on the Bottom yogurt. I subbed that for the yogurt in the recipe, cut the sugar to 3/4 cup, and subbed out 1/4 cup of oil for 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce. It was delicious! I didn’t do the glaze, instead served like a strawberry shortcake with whipped cream and fresh strawberries. A great end to a summer meal!

      Yes, that shouldn’t be a problem. Just make to thaw and dry them before adding to the batter.

    I made this recipe, using monk fruit sugar. I made it is a large pan and in smaller one. Either one of them was done. After more than 90 mins in the oven and burning on top ( put tin foil on top) it was done half way through. Not sure what the problem was, but will never make or recommend this recipe.
