Grandma’s Pound Cake.

Saw a recipe here a while back for pound cake cooked in iron skillet made it and it was delicious. Now I can’t find it (should have made a copy). Anyone have it or can help me find it again. Thanks

I knew it had to be a winner so I copied it. It is excellent.

Thanks. It is very good. I’ll make me a extra copy this time.

yup - i posted that - it's killer!! my GF last year gave that recipe to me

I wanted to hat tip whoever had posted it but I couldn’t for the life of me remember who it was. I appreciate you posting it up. It’s a great recipe.

my pleasure! 👍🏻

Do you preheat the skillet like corn bread?

no sir - spray the inside with Baker’s Joy

Thanks Dude. This is a great cake. I shared it with my son and my mother in law. They thank you also👍🏼

very welcome - enjoy & share freely!

BTW - these are pics from the first time i made this recipe - i had just restored this #6 Griswold skillet that i baked it in ... i remember it being near about perfect - awesome crust & SUPER moist ...

Can it be mixed by hand or would i need either a hand or stand mixer?

Dont have either at the camp but this could be a good substitute for the crock pot dump cakes I make often.

yup, mix by hand, bud ... that's how i did it for each cake i made using this recipe ...

I made it last weekend, I mixed everything with a wooden spoon, doesn’t get anymore old school than that. Lol Turned out awesome! Thanks,BGD

you're welcome! definitely old school - best part about it - old school recipe, old school iron ... don't get much better

I’ve got this in the oven right now and it smells delicious. Really looking forward to trying it out.

Had it with some strawberries and whipped cream and it was fantastic! Much better than the Paula dean recipe my wife and I had been using and much easier. Thanks for sharing!

cool man! Mrs Grissett hailed from Atmore, AL & you can thank her for this wonderful recipe; she passed away a few years ago, God rest her soul ... i can only imagine what her other cooking must've tasted like; i got this recipe from her son in late 2018 & immediately tried it out ... i found & sent him an old dutch oven as a "thank you" for this recipe; a good trade, in my book

Made this cake this morning and give it a triple a rating. Brings back old memories

I have it in the oven baking right now as I type.

Can't hardly wait for this hour to pass.

Well, how was it. Any pics?

It was great.

Great old timey recipe.

Didn't take any PICS.

old school’s the best school

I polished ours off this morning and am about to take #2 out of the oven.

😂😂 i hear ya, Parker!! 😀

I'm gonna have to try this next time I take a keto day off.

get ready for a sugar overload; it's potent ... when i cheat on keto w/sugar, i get punished - really bad headaches for several days ...

Delicious!
Thanks for the recipe!

looks great, man!!

I hope it taste as good as it looks.

Rutabaga, it tastes good, bro ... BTW, i've got a buttermilk cornbread recipe that'll blow that Jiffy stuff out of the water - sent you a PM

We could all use a great cornbread recipe

Rutabaga, It was F I N E.....lol
Gonna make another one this weekend.

hey birdcarver, here’s a link to my buttermilk cornbread recipe - https://youtu.be/YgOPkRZ6Pow

get the White Lily buttermilk cornmeal, self rising ... trust me on that 😂👊🏻

Wife cooked it, I have had two slices and told her to throw it away. She asked why and I told her I would be up sometime in the middle of the night finishing it off. It is still in the skillet siting on the stove wrapped in foil, please Lord let it make it to the morning. Wife is talking about blueberries and strawberries with it for breakfast, can’t wait.

😂👊🏻 awesome!!

I’m gonna have to make this thing this weekend.

It is sho' nuff some kinda good!

I tried to make one today using Splenda instead of granulated sugar , went well till added the flour and it thicken till it would not pour, did not give up took hand and smeared it into greased skillet and put in oven 30 minutes later it was done, about a 1/2 thick, but still tasted good. What is a diabetic going to do?
