Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. Cut the pineapple into small pieces so they evenly distribute throughout the cake.
  • Drain the pineapple well after cutting it. Excess juice can make the cake soggy.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the cake, making it light and tender.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the cake from curdling.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
  • Pour the batter into a greased and floured bundt pan. Bake the cake for the specified amount of time, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before inverting it onto a serving plate. This will help to prevent the cake from breaking.
  • Dust the cake with powdered sugar or glaze it with a pineapple glaze before serving.
