Manage episode 433124412 series 3585040
Grief Coach Jenna Bonner welcomes her husband Jairus back to the show for a tasty and meaningful "Grief & Food" topic. Jenna recalls her volunteer experience with a local Hospice group and the creative way they shared the beautiful connection of grief and food.
Jairus is sharing stories about his late Grandmother - and her famous Pound Cake! Jenna took on the task of making her recipe so they could sample the memories while talking about her. Jairus remembers how this pound cake brought the family together.
Here is "Momma's Pound Cake" Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 - 1lb box Domino Confectioners Sugar
2 - cups - Cake Flour (Swans Down)
2 - sticks -salted butter (Land O Lakes salted butter
6 - large eggs (Egg lands Best or organic eggs)
1 - teaspoon - pure vanilla extract (Mccormick)
1 -teaspoon - pure lemon extract (McCormick)
1 - Fluted Tube Pan - (I purchased at Bed, Bath, and Beyond or check Ross or Burlington)
1 -9”x 11” sheet cake baking pan
1 - can Baker’s Joy (the original non-stick baking spray with flour)
Preheat Oven at 350 degrees
Mix Ingredients:
Sift cake flour 5x’s in a bowl and put it aside. Lightly grease fluted tube pan (Baker’s Joy)
Using an electric mixer beat butter well. Then gradually add confectioners' sugar and mix until creamy. Add eggs one at a time and beat well after each egg is added until creamy. Gradually add the sifted cake flour to the creamy mixture and mix well. Add vanilla extract. Beat. Then add lemon extract. Beat. Mix well but do not over beat. (may make cake dry)
Fill the 91/2” x 11” baking pan (or just a long baking pan) with water less than half full and place in oven on rack above Momma’s pound cake. It keeps the cake from cooking too fast. It works! I guarantee! Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees. Use a toothpick to check to see if cake is done. Enjoy!
