Lemon Strawberry Pound Cake

Serves: 8

Happy Friday! We have finally reached the end of the week! I am so excited for the weekend and some nice weather! A few weeks ago when I did the Lock Laces giveaway I had asked you to leave a comment about one of your favorite spring foods….and strawberries were a huge win! Since I too love strawberries, I figured why not start with the spring and summer recipes now! The warm weather this weekend makes for the perfect time to share this delicious cake! Loaded with strawberry and lemon flavor, you will definitely be shooting straight into the summer! Enjoy the recipe and have a great weekend! :)

Loaded with fresh strawberry flavor, yet moist and dense just like a full fat pound cake….it doesn’t get any better than that! Top it with additional fresh strawberries and coconut cream or greek yogurt! This is the perfect spring recipe!
