Low Fat Pound Cake
This lightened-up pound cake is made with pureed cottage cheese which gives the cake a lot of moisture. You'd never guess that this isn't a regular full-fat cake!
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups unsalted butter, melted and at room temperature
- 8 oz 4 percent cottage cheese, pureed (see note)
- 3 cups granulate sugar
- 1 tbsp vanilla
- 1 tsp salt
- 6 eggs
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a bundt pan and flour it.
- In a stand mixer, combine the butter, cottage cheese, and sugar until well combined, about one minute. Add the vanilla and mix until combined. With the mixer running, add the eggs one at a time only adding the next one once the previous ones are completely mixed into the batter. Turn the mixer to low and add the flour in batches.
- Pour the batter into the pan and bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool the cake in the pan for ten minutes before turning it out onto a baking rack to cool completely.
Notes
- It's important to puree the cottage cheese so you don't end up with white chunks in your cake, so be sure to process it until it's very smooth.
