Vanilla pound cake with fresh peaches & blueberries is a simple dessert that can be made with pantry staples and is highly customizable depending on what fruits are in season!
I don’t think there’s anything better than peach season in Texas. Granted, this is my first one, but it’s proving to be all that I dreamed it would be! The juiciness and the size of the peaches down here is amazing — I know the season will be gone in a few weeks so I’m doing all I can to eat my fill in the meantime.
Pound cake is a dessert we had pretty often at home. Usually it was the classic sliced pound cake with strawberries that had been hanging out in a sugary syrup and topped with cool whip. I’m not sure there’s a more widely loved dessert and it just screams home to me!
What I love most about this idea for a dessert is that it can be made with pantry staples, and there are a wide variety of recipes out there depending on what you have in the cupboard. Sour cream, butter, greek yogurt, oil – if you’ve got any combination of those things along with eggs, sugar, and flour, chances are you have the ingredients to make a pound cake! Then, round up your spare fruit and you’ve got a dessert. Whipped cream optional, but highly recommended 😉
