Pineapple Bunt Cake
Description
Pineapple Bunt Cake uses boxed yellow cake and vanilla pudding mixes combined with eggs, vegetable oil, and crushed pineapple to produce a moist cake with pineapple flavor throughout. The batter is baked in a greased and floured bunt or tube pan until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, ensuring the cake is cooked evenly.
The accompanying glaze is made by melting butter and mixing it with reserved crushed pineapple, pineapple juice, and powdered sugar. This glaze is spooned over the cooled cake, allowing the liquid to soak in and form a sweet, slightly sticky coating that enhances the pineapple notes and adds moisture.
This cake slices well and can be served as a dessert or for special occasions, offering a sweet and fruity option with the convenience of using cake mixes and canned pineapple.
Ingredients
Cake
- 15.25 ounce yellow cake mix (1 box)
- 3.4 ounce vanilla pudding mix (1 box)
- 4 egg
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 20 ounces pineapple juice reserved, canned, crushed
Glaze
- ¼ cup butter
- ¾ cup pineapple crushed
- 2 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a bunt cake pan or tube cake pan.
- Set aside 3/4 cup of crushed pineapple for the glaze.
- In a large mixing bowl combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, oil, and remaining pineapple. Mix on medium speed for 3 minutes. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted halfway between the tube and the wall of the pan comes out clean. Remove from the oven and cool completely.
- In a small saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Add the reserved 3/4 cup of crushed pineapple, all of the reserved pineapple juice, and powdered sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat.
- Remove the cooled cake from the pan and transfer it to a serving plate. Spoon the pineapple glaze all over the cake, letting it soak in. Cut into slices and serve.
