To make Pound Cake with Strawberry Glaze, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 350 °F.
In a large bowl combine 2 cups sugar, oil and butter and beat with a mixer at medium speed until light and fluffy.
While still beating, add the eggs until combined.
Add the vanilla, lemon rind and 2 tablespoons lemon juice and stir well.
In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat pastry flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate bowl, combine the sour cream and milk.
Combine the flour mixture and sour cream mixture alternating with the wet ingredients mixture, beginning and ending with the flour.
Pour the batter into a 10-cup Bundt pan greased with baking spray.
Bake cake in the preheated oven for 55 minutes until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely on a wire rack.
In a saucepan, combine the strawberries, ⅓ cup corn starch, lemon juice and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and cook for a further 3 minutes until thickened.
Strain the glaze through a sieve discarding the solids and drizzle over the pound cake, to serve.
