Description

This Juicy Pineapple Cake is a tropical, two-ingredient wonder that’s ultra-moist, naturally sweet, and perfect for any occasion. Just mix and bake for a crowd-pleasing treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix
  • 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice (undrained)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the dry cake mix and the entire can of crushed pineapple, including the juice.
  3. Mix until just combined, making sure not to overmix.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool for 15 minutes before slicing. Optionally top with whipped cream or powdered sugar.

Notes

  • Don’t drain the pineapple — the juice is key to the cake’s texture.
  • Add shredded coconut or chopped nuts for extra texture.
  • Use a glass or ceramic dish for even baking.
  • Can be served warm, at room temp, or chilled.
