Pound cake is breakfast cake to me. I know most people will say coffee cake is the only true “breakfast cake”, but there is something about pound cake that makes it perfect with a cup of coffee in the morning.
Plus, this particular pound cake is a buttermilk pound cake — that just screams breakfast! However, to be fair, this cake also screams brunch, lunch, snack, dinner and dessert to me. Can you tell I like pound cake?
(Pssst! Make sure you also look at this Blueberry Lime Cream Cheese Pound Cake if you also LOVE pound cakes! It’s phenomenal.)
Every one has a favorite version of buttermilk pound cake and this is mine. I love all of the spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice) in combination with the rich moist cake. Then you add the sweet almond & vanilla glaze on top and I am a goner.
This is one of those cakes that is perfect for guests coming over. No crazy flavors to turn anyone off, it can easily be made a day ahead, and it looks gorgeous sitting on the counter when your guests walk in!

Gorgeous! I love these photos so much!
Can you leave the almond extract out? I’m allergic to nuts.
Yes! Just replace it with more vanilla extract instead.
Just made this for my boyfriend and he said it’s the best cake I have ever made! I saw it last night on your FB and had to try it. Thanks so much!
So you both liked it! 🙂
Just pinned it! Looks delish!
Hi. Could this be baked in a loaf pan instead of a bundt pan and would it make 2 loaves? Thanks.
Of course you can! I would recommend defiantly making it into two 8 inch loaf pans!
