Ingredients

Directions

1. Prepare the Oven

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Set aside a 9×13-inch glass baking dish. Do not grease the dish.

2. Mix the Batter

In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry angel food cake mix with the entire can of crushed pineapple, including the juice. Stir by hand until the mixture becomes well combined, light, and foamy.

3. Bake

Pour the batter into the ungreased baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 28 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown, the center springs back lightly when touched, and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean.

4. Cool

Allow the cake to cool in the baking dish for 20 to 30 minutes. As it cools, the cake may settle slightly, creating its signature soft texture.

5. Serve

Cut into squares and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
