🍍 Ingredients

Serves: 10–12
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Bake Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Total Time: ~1 hour 25 minutes

🧈 For the Pound Cake:

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup crushed pineapple (with juice)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional but recommended)

🍋 Optional Glaze (for a glossy finish):

1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Preheat & Prepare

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan or two loaf pans.
This gentle baking temperature helps the cake bake evenly and stay moist.

Step 2: Cream the Butter & Sugar

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together using an electric mixer for 4–5 minutes, until light and fluffy.
This step traps air into the batter — the secret to that perfect, tender crumb.

Step 3: Add the Eggs

Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything blends evenly.

Step 4: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
This ensures your leavening agent is distributed evenly throughout the batter.

Step 5: Add Pineapple & Combine

Alternately add the flour mixture and the crushed pineapple (with juice) to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with flour.
Mix on low speed until just combined — don’t overmix.

Stir in vanilla extract for a soft, tropical aroma. 🌺

Step 6: Bake

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan(s).
Smooth the top and bake for 65–75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then carefully turn it out onto a wire rack.

Step 7: Optional Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Drizzle over the cooled cake for a sweet, glossy finish. ✨
