  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, well-drained
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp pineapple juice

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour a loaf pan.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients and sour cream to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the crushed pineapple.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Whisk together powdered sugar and pineapple juice to make the glaze, then drizzle over the cooled cake.

Notes

  • For added tropical flavor, consider adding shredded coconut to the batter.
  • Brighten up the flavors with a teaspoon of lemon zest mixed into the batter.
  • Add chopped walnuts or pecans for a nutty twist.
