1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 3/4 cups white sugar

3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup golden raisin
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained

I added some chopped walnuts to the batter, and it gave the cake a nice crunchy texture. I also used unsweetened applesauce instead of oil, and it worked out great.
