Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
  • Optional: 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • Optional: powdered sugar or pineapple glaze for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch Bundt or loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with crushed pineapple. Mix just until incorporated.
  6. Toss chopped strawberries in a tablespoon of flour (to prevent sinking), then gently fold them into the batter.
  7. Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 70–80 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with pineapple glaze if desired.

Notes

  • Add shredded coconut for a tropical touch.
  • Use a pineapple glaze made with powdered sugar and pineapple juice for extra moisture and flavor.
  • Make muffins by baking in tins for 20–25 minutes.
  • Substitute strawberries with raspberries or peaches if needed.
  • Use lemon or orange zest for added brightness.
  • Wrap and freeze individual slices for up to 2 months.
