DIRECTIONS

 

1.     Preheat oven to 350°F. Line the bottom of two 9×5″ loaf pans with parchment paper, lightly grease sides with butter and flour it.
 

2.     Whisk dry ingredients together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
 

3.     Melt butter and stir, adding sugar, and sour cream in a large bowl or Kitchen Aid. Stir in eggs, one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Add apple cider and dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Pour into prepared pan.
 

4.     Bake for 34-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. 
 

5.     While the cake is baking, make the glaze. Heat the sugar and apple cider in a small saucepan over medium heat until it boils. Boil for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.

6.     Stir together topping ingredients in a small bowl.
 

7.     Cool pound cake for 15 minutes in the pan. Use a knife to loosen around the edges, then carefully remove the cake and place it on a cooling rack, remove parchment from bottom of cake. Split glaze in two and pour glaze evenly over each loaf. Immediately sprinkle with cinnamon sugar mixture. Let cool before eating.
