Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 cup crushed pineapple with juice
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt until evenly mixed.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the crushed pineapple (with juice), vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well blended.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, checking for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center; it should come out clean.
- Once baked, let the cake cool in the pan for a while before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For best flavor, use ripe pineapple. You can substitute whole wheat flour or coconut oil for a healthier twist.
