Strawberry Yogurt Pound Cake
Strawberry pound cake meets strawberry yogurt cake with this tasty recipe.
The Greek yogurt combines with bits of fresh strawberries to give this homemade strawberry pound cake it’s moist texture and delicious flavor. For another tasty Greek yogurt dessert try these chewy chocolate chip cookies with Greek yogurt.
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.
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 this incredible strawberry crumb cake or a batch of these homemade strawberry muffins, strawberry scones, or mini strawberry trifles as well — you will not be disappointed!

Incredibly delicious!! Should this be refrigerated?
You can keep it in an airtight container or wrapped tightly with plastic wrap at room temperature for 1-2 days. If you want to keep it for longer (up to 4 days) pop it in the fridge.
could I use plain yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?
Yes, plain yogurt would work too – enjoy!
