Delicious Angel Food Cake With Pineapple and Coconut: (Tips and Tricks for a Perfect Cake)

Okay, so, I tried making this angel food cake thing, but I jazzed it up a bit. I threw in some pineapple and coconut ’cause, why not, right? It sounded like a good idea at the time, and to be honest, it turned out pretty awesome.

First off, I preheated my oven to 350 degrees. While that was warming up, I greased up a 9×13 baking dish. Gotta make sure that cake doesn’t stick! Then, I grabbed a big bowl and dumped in the angel food cake mix, a cup of coconut flakes, and a can of crushed pineapple. Don’t drain the pineapple, the juice is important! The whole thing started to fizz a little, which was kinda cool to watch. It’s like a mini science experiment in your kitchen!

I mixed all that stuff together, which was a bit of a workout, let me tell you. That batter gets thick! Once it was all mixed up, I poured it into the greased baking dish and popped it in the oven.

Delicious Angel Food Cake With Pineapple and Coconut: (Tips and Tricks for a Perfect Cake)
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease a 9×13 baking dish.
  • Combine angel food cake mix, coconut flakes, and pineapple (including juice) in a large bowl.
  • Mix well.
  • Pour batter into the greased dish.
  • Bake!

I set a timer, but I didn’t write down how long I baked it for…I think it was around 30 minutes? You just gotta keep an eye on it. When it’s done, the top gets all golden brown and if you stick a toothpick in the middle, it should come out clean.

The final result?

Man, it smelled amazing when I pulled it out of the oven. All that pineapple and coconut, it was like a tropical vacation in my kitchen. After letting it cool down, I dug in. It was so fluffy and moist, not like those dry, boring cakes you sometimes get. The pineapple added a nice sweetness and the coconut gave it a little extra something. I think it would be even better with some whipped cream, but I didn’t have any.

Overall, I’m pretty stoked with how this turned out. It’s a super easy recipe, even if you mess up the baking time a bit like I did. If you’re looking for a simple dessert that’s a little different, you should totally give this a shot.
