- 5 large eggs at room temperature
- 3 cups all-purpose flour 390 grams
- 1 teaspoon baking powder 3 grams
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 3 grams
- 2 tablespoons vanilla extract 27 grams
- 3/4 cup pineapple juice 6 ounces
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar 100 grams
- 1/2 cup salted butter 4 ounces, melted
- 6 pineapple rings

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325ºF. Grease a 12-cup bundt pan with shortening, then dust it with flour. (Or use Baker's Joy or Cake Release. See above article.)
- In large bowl using a stand mixer or electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. 1 1/2 cups salted butter, 3 cups granulated sugar
- Add in the eggs and continue to mix until blended. 5 large eggs
- Add in the flour, baking powder and baking soda and mix again just until smooth. Do not overmix. 3 cups all-purpose flour , 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- Pour in the vanilla extract and pineapple juice and mix to combine. 2 tablespoons vanilla extract, 3/4 cup pineapple juice
- In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and melted butter and pour into bottom of prepared pan. 1/2 cup light brown sugar , 1/2 cup salted butter
- Layer the pineapple slices around the bottom of pan and place a cherry in the center of ring and on the outside. 6 pineapple rings, maraschino cherries
- Spread the batter evenly in the bundt pan and bake for 70-90 minutes or until center is set. (The internal temperature of the cake should be between 200-210ºF. )
- Immediately invert cake out onto serving tray. (If you don't turn out right away the brown sugar mixture will harden and stick to pan.)
- Allow the cake to cool completely, then store in an airtight container at room temperature.
- This cake has the best flavor if you serve it the day after making it.
Notes
- The calories shown are based on the cake being cut into 15 pieces, with 1 serving being 1 slice of cake. Since different brands of ingredients have different nutritional information, the calories shown are just an estimate. **We are not dietitians and recommend you seek a nutritionist for exact nutritional information. The information in the nutrition box are calculated through a program and there is room for error. If you need an accurate count, I recommend running the ingredients through your favorite nutrition calculator.**
- There is no additional salt in this recipe. If you only have unsalted butter, add 3/4 teaspoon of salt to the cake batter.
- Yes, 1 1/2 cups of butter (3 sticks) is a lot, but it is traditional for a pound cake. One reader made the cake with 1 cup of butter, then added in 1/4 cup spiced rum (or you could do milk) and the cake turned out well.
