Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 can (20 oz) Canned crushed pineapple (with juice)
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and lightly flour a 9x13-inch baking pan, or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
Open the can of crushed pineapple and pour both the pineapple and its juice into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined.
Add the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir until the batter is smooth and evenly combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan before slicing.
For an extra indulgent touch, spread whipped cream over the top of the cooled cake and sprinkle with shredded coconut and chopped pecans or walnuts, if desired.
Slice the cake into 12 equal pieces and serve. Enjoy the tropical flavors in every bite!
