Description

A soft, moist loaf cake made with crushed pineapple and a light glaze, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, well drained
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons pineapple juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan and dust with flour.
  2. Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  3. Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, then beat in the vanilla.
  5. Stir in dry mix and sour cream alternately, starting and ending with dry mix.
  6. Fold in the drained crushed pineapple carefully.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50 to 60 minutes.
  8. Check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
  9. Let the cake cool slightly in the pan, then completely on a rack.
  10. Mix powdered sugar with pineapple juice to create a glaze and drizzle over the cooled cake.

Notes

Use room temperature butter and eggs for easier mixing. Make sure to drain the crushed pineapple well to prevent a wet batter.
