Easy Mochimugi Pound Cake
				
			A pound cake made with mochi barley flour, which is rich in dietary fiber.
Freshly baked, it’s soft and chewy; the next day it becomes moist — both are delicious.
Ingredient
| ≪Ingredient≫ | For one pound cake loaf | 
| Cake flour | 70 g | 
| Mochimugi flour | 30 g | 
| Sugar | 100 g | 
| Butter (softened at room temperature) | 100 g | 
| Eggs | 2 | 
| Baking powder | 1.5 tsp | 
Instructions
- 
Preheat the oven to 170°C (338°F).
 - 
Sift together the cake flour, mochimugi flour, and baking powder.
 - 
Cream the butter until smooth, then add sugar and mix well.

 - 
Gradually add the beaten eggs into step 3, mixing well each time.
 - 
Fold the dry ingredients from step 2 into the wet mixture from step 4 until just combined.

 - Grease a pound cake pan with butter (not listed in ingredients), pour in the batter, and tap the pan lightly to release air bubbles.

 - Bake for 20 minutes, remove and score the center with a knife, then bake another 20 minutes. If it looks like burning, cover with foil. Insert a skewer — if it comes out clean, it’s done.
