Glazed Pineapple Cake Recipes

PINEAPPLE POKE CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside.
• In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
• Wait momentarily before adding the eggs so you don't scramble them. Add the eggs, granulated sugar, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
• Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and stir until just combined, don't overmix.
• Add the crushed pineapple and stir to combine. (Reserve the juice for the glaze.)
• Turn batter out into prepared pan, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
• Bake for about 36 to 41 minutes (I baked 39 minutes), or until done. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.*
• Set cake on a wire rack to cool momentarily while you make the glaze.
• In a large mixing bowl, add 2 cups confectioners' sugar, 3 to 4 tablespoons of reserved pineapple juice, and whisk vigorously until smooth and combined. Depending on glaze consistency and preference, you may need to play with the sugar and juice ratios slightly; set glaze aside.
• Using a small paring knife, poke the cake in about 25 spots, lightly twisting the knife with each poke. You don't need to make craters or get too wild poking because the glaze finds a way to soak in.
• Evenly pour glaze over the cake. If glaze is pooling near the sides of pan, use a spatula to push it back up into the center and then use the spatula to 'squish' it down into the holes. Even if it looks like there's too much glaze, it eventually soaks in.
• The longer you can let it soak (overnight is optimal) before slicing and serving the cake, the better.
• Cake will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

RUM-GLAZED PINEAPPLE COFFEE CAKE

Steps:

• Put the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine. Add the butter and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until all of the butter has been evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour. Form into small to medium clumps with your fingers.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square cake pan.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
• Beat together the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour, beating until just incorporated.
• Spoon half of the cake batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Dollop the pineapple preserves on top and carefully smooth with the spatula. Spoon the remaining cake batter on top and smooth the top. Sprinkle on the crumb topping.
• Bake until the cake and topping are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate; invert back onto a rack to cool completely.
• When the cake is cool, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and rum in a medium bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set.
