Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple, with juice

  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/2 cup neutral oil (vegetable or canola)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

  • In a large bowl, mix together sugar, eggs, oil, vanilla extract, and crushed pineapple with juice.

  • Add in flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until just combined.

  • Fold in shredded coconut until evenly distributed.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.

  • Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  • Let the cake cool completely before slicing or adding toppings.

  • Optional: Top with whipped cream, cream cheese frosting, or toasted coconut flakes.

Notes

  • For added depth, mix in 1/2 tsp lime zest or a pinch of cinnamon.
  • The cake freezes well. Cut into squares, wrap individually, and store for up to 2 months.
  • Serve with fruit or a scoop of ice cream for extra fun.
