Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9-inch baking pan, ensuring it is well coated to prevent sticking.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure that the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

  3. Add the crushed pineapple with its juice to the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

  4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated into the batter. Add the vanilla extract and mix again until smooth.

  5. If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor. This step is optional, so feel free to omit the walnuts if you prefer a nut-free cake.

  6. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula to ensure even baking.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  8. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

  9. Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for a simple and elegant finish, or frost with cream cheese frosting for added decadence.

  10. Slice and serve the Pineapple Surprise Cake, savoring each bite of the moist cake studded with sweet pineapple bits.
