My family loves a good pound cake but they are loaded with fat and sugar, so I limit how often I either make or have them in the house. My kids love to have a piece at night or grab one as they are heading out the door in the morning so I’ve been on the hunt for a healthier version. And I’ve found it! A traditional lemon blueberry pound cake has roughly 600 calories per slice. Per slice! My recipe has the same amazing texture and taste and comes in at 222 calories!

Healthier Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake

The cake is done when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Let the cake cool for 10 minutes and then remove from pan.

If you want a drizzle, you can mix 1/2 cup of powdered sugar with 4 teaspoons of lemon juice and drizzle over. Note, the calorie count does not include this step as my family doesn’t like this - it makes the cake sweeter.
