Ingredients
- 2 cups of fresh pineapple, diced (or one 20 oz can of pineapple tidbits, drained)
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce
- 1/2 cup of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of shredded coconut (optional)
- Whipped cream or ice cream for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Spread the diced pineapple evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the applesauce, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter over the pineapple in the baking dish, spreading it out evenly. If using shredded coconut, sprinkle it over the top of the batter.
- Place the dish in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
- Allow the cake to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Top with whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream if desired.
