Kumquat Pound Cake

I made kumquat muffins and they were requested again.
So, this time, I made a pound cake.
It's super yummy.

Kumquat confit is rather light, so I placed it on top of the batter just before baking. Even so, they sunk to the bottom.
Mix liqueur into the syrup if you like.
You can make this using equal amounts of oil, sugar, egg, and flour. This time, I used 170 g each. Recipe by Yukijirushi
