2 Ingredient Pineapple Angel Food Cake
Description
The 2 Ingredient Pineapple Angel Food Cake combines angel food cake mix with crushed pineapple, including its juices, to create a light, moist cake baked in a rectangular pan. The pineapple's natural moisture eliminates the need for additional liquid ingredients, and the cake mix provides the airy texture typical of angel food cakes. This approach produces a cake that is soft with a delicate crumb and a gentle sweetness with a pineapple brightness.
Baked until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, the cake can be served plain or topped with whipped cream, whipped topping, or fresh fruit for added texture and flavor. Since the cake mix must contain only one packet, this ensures proper balance of ingredients for the texture.
Storing the leftover cake in the refrigerator keeps it fresh for a few days, while freezing wrapped pieces preserves it longer. Thawing at room temperature allows the cake to regain tenderness for serving.
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce each) box angel food cake mix see note
- 1 (20 ounce each) can pineapple with juices, crushed
- 1 (8 ounce each) tub whipped topping optional
- Fruit optional for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Line a 9×13 pan with parchment paper. (optional)
- In a large bowl combine cake mix and undrained crushed pineapple. Pour into the prepared pan and bake 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
- Remove cake from the pan and cut. Garnish with whipped topping and fruit as desired.
Notes
- Use an angel food cake mix that includes just one packet inside the box for proper balance.
- The cake is moist enough on its own without additional frosting or toppings.
- Optional toppings include whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit to add texture and flavor.
- Store cake covered in the refrigerator for up to three days; freeze wrapped for up to four months.
- Thaw frozen cake at room temperature before serving.
