  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk or Cream
  • Butter/Oil for Frying

  4. Pour batter into a large backing tray, approximately 10inches x 15 inches.
  5. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. It is done when the edges are a golden brown and the center is slightly firm to touch.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool

  8. NOTES: **For Splenda Zero, squeeze for a 15 second count. These are a quick 15 seconds. There are no "Mississippi's" or "One-Thousands" in the count. **For the orange juice, buy 1 or 2 oranges and squeeze the juice fresh. This keeps the sugars natural, and avoids any added sugars or processing.

This looks awesome but I'm curious how long and in what size pan you recommend for baking the pound cake - looks like a step is missing before "remove from the oven and let cool". Thank you!

Whoops! I have fixed this now. The missing steps were:
1. Pour batter into a large backing tray, approximately 10inches x 15 inches.
2. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes. It is done when the edges are a golden brown and the center is slightly firm to touch.

That is updated in the recipe now. Thank you for the heads up, and enjoy!
