Scale
For the Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup canned pineapple juice (unsweetened)
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar

- 1 tablespoon melted butter
Instructions
Preparing the Cake
- Preheat Your Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan and set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the eggs, pineapple juice, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Let the cake cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
Making the Glaze
- Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and melted butter until smooth.
- Glaze the Cake: While the cake is still slightly warm, pour the glaze evenly over the top, letting it soak into the cake.
Notes
- Use Fresh Juice: For a more vibrant flavor, substitute canned juice with freshly squeezed pineapple juice.
- Add Texture: Incorporate shredded coconut or crushed pineapple into the batter for extra texture.
- Poke Holes: Poke small holes in the cake before glazing to help the glaze seep in.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
