🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 20 ounces Crushed pineapple (with juice)
• 2 units Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 2 tablespoons Pineapple juice (from the can)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.

3. Add the crushed pineapple (with juice), eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.

4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

5. Bake the cake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

6. While the cake is baking, prepare the glaze. In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Stir in the powdered sugar, milk, and pineapple juice until smooth.

7. Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes.

8. While the cake is still warm, poke small holes all over the surface using a skewer or fork, and pour the glaze evenly over the cake. Use a spatula to spread it and allow it to soak in.

9. Let the cake cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Yummy Pineapple Cake!
