Carrot Pound Cake Recipes

I am going to be perfectly honest with you right now. I am a bit obsessed with turning the classic dishes into something else. Take this new pound cake recipe I have below. It really is the classic carrot cake turned into a delicious and highly fattening pound cake. Oh and this isn’t the first time with carrot cake either. I have made a Carrot Cake Baked French Toast that turned out pretty well and I my daughter’s favorite jam is the Carrot Cake Jam that I preserve via water bath canning. And lets not forget my Strawberry Shortcake Baked French Toast. That is a great classic turned into an excellent breakfast dish.

Okay, lets get back to this recipe…I think I got a bit side tracked. This recipe was found by me on Pinterest the other day when I was looking for, more than likely, something else. There was leftover carrots in the fridge and we all love carrot cake in this house. So it seemed to be a perfect recipe. There isn’t much more to say about it but that it has a carrot cake taste with cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger made into a dense and buttery pound cake batter. Not to mention, the added cream cheese in the batter of the cake makes a creamier and softer tasting pound cake.
