Instructions
Creating a scrumptious Pineapple Juice Cake is straightforward. Follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13-inch baking pan.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, beat together the vegetable oil, pineapple juice, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Add Crushed Pineapple: Fold in the drained crushed pineapple, ensuring it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter.
6. Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Dust with Powdered Sugar: Once cool, dust the top with powdered sugar for a finishing touch, if desired.
By following these steps, you’ll have a light and fruity Pineapple Juice Cake that’s simply irresistible.
