  1. You are a very talented woman. I’m amazed at all the different things you do. You must
    stay very busy.
    I am looking for a printable recipe for the almond pound cake.

    I have printed you Grandma’s
    Instant Pot Pound cake recipe.. and am looking forward to baking that in my Instant Pot. I have a question regarding the pan you used, since I only have a Ninja tube pan with removable bottom
    I was wondering if that would work as well. I noticed you told someone if they used a different pan to perhaps cook for a lesser time.
