How to make pineapple juice cake?
Follow the recipe below, and make sure to read through the frequently asked questions and pro tips to bake the Best Pineapple Juice Cake.
- Step 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 10 to 12-cup bundt pan. Now add some flour and spread it all over by shaking. (This will make it easy to remove the cake from the pan after it has baked.)
- Step 2. Use an electric mixer to combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, pineapple juice, and eggs in a large bowl. Beat about 2 minutes.
- Step 3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the cake is just starting to pull away from the sides. Allow the cake to start to cool in the pan while you make the glaze.
- Step 4. In a small saucepan, combine the powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat until the butter has melted, stirring frequently.
- Step 5. Use a skewer or toothpick to poke holes in the cake. Pour the warm glaze over the cake while it is still in the cake pan. It’s going to seem like a lot of glazes, but just keep pouring. Allow to cool for 15 to 20 more minutes, or until the cake is cool and most of the glaze has been absorbed, then invert the cake onto a serving platter.
Recipe tips;
- Fill the baking pan only ⅔ height. The cake will rise a lot in the oven.
- Rinse your knife under hot water and dry it, before you cut the cake. Cutting will be easier.
