Here’s a simple and delicious recipe for a Pineapple Juice Cake that’s moist, flavorful, and easy to make:
Ingredients
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup pineapple juice (fresh or canned)
- ½ cup crushed pineapple, drained
- Optional: powdered sugar for dusting or glaze
Instructions
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour an 8-inch cake pan.
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Cream Butter and Sugar:
- In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla:
- Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
- Combine Wet and Dry:
- Gradually add the flour mixture, alternating with pineapple juice, mixing until smooth.
- Fold in Crushed Pineapple:
- Gently fold in the drained crushed pineapple.
- Bake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve:
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with a simple glaze if desired.
✅ Tips:
- For extra moisture, you can brush the top of the cake with a little extra pineapple juice while it’s still warm.
- This cake pairs beautifully with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
