Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 16 ounce Betty Crocker Angel Food Cake Mix box (make sure to use the 'just add water' variety)
- 20 ounce can of Crushed Pineapple
- Optional: Cool Whip and Coconut for topping
Instructions
- Gather your ingredients.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In large mixing bowl, stir powdered Angel Food Cake Mix and Crushed Pineapple together (including the juice from the can) with large wooden spoon. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer mixture into 9×13 ungreased ceramic baking dish. (Do NOT grease pan)
- Bake for 30 – 35 minutes, or until golden brown on top. The cake will puff up and rise while baking, so keep an eye on it for the last few minutes to make sure it doesn't attempt to overflow from your pan.
- After baking, it is completely normal for your cake to fall in the middle as it cools.
- Optional: To avoid the cake falling a bit in the middle as it cools, you can immediately turn upside down to cool... I like to use loaf pans as support.
- Just before serving, top your slice with optional whip cream or cool whip... and coconut flakes, fresh berries, or a cherry on top!
Notes
- High Altitude Baking Tip: If you live at a higher altitude (above 3,000 - 3,500 feet) add 1 - 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to the batter for stability.
- Cake Storage: There is no need to store this pineapple angel food cake in the refrigerator, and it can actually overly moisten the cake and compromise the texture. For best results, leftovers can be stored covered, at room temperature for up to 2 days.
