Ingredients
- 1 box (16 oz) angel food cake mix (one-step kind)
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice (undrained)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the cake.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry angel food cake mix with the entire can of crushed pineapple including its juice. Stir gently until the mixture is fully combined and fluffy; be careful not to overmix to maintain the airy texture.
- Prepare Pan: Pour the batter into an ungreased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly. Do not grease the pan, as angel food cake requires the batter to cling to the sides for proper rising.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool: Allow the cake to cool completely in the pan to set properly before slicing.
- Serve: Slice and serve the cake as is or with a dollop of light whipped topping for extra indulgence.
Notes
- Do not grease the pan, as angel food cake needs to cling to the sides to rise properly.
