The natural sweetness of the fruit makes it refreshing and light, and when topped with a creamy frosting or a dusting of powdered sugar, it transforms into an elegant dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice (do not drain)
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional Cream Cheese Frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix together flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Add eggs, vanilla, and crushed pineapple (with juice) to the dry ingredients. Mix until everything is well combined. The batter will be quite thick and moist.
- Fold in nuts if using, then pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool completely in the pan before frosting or serving.
To Make the Frosting:
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the vanilla, then gradually beat in the powdered sugar until fluffy.
- Spread evenly over the cooled cake and chill slightly before slicing.
