Pineapple Cake Recipe


I really enjoyed baking this pineapple cake because it was very exciting to see it easily come out from the loaf tin with all of the pinepaple rings perfectly set in place.

This is a great cake to bake and very filling to eat.

I use ground almonds, oatbran and fresh pineapple in this cake recipe which makes it very wholesome and delicious.

I used white spelt flour but you can use plain all purpose flour if desired.

This pineapple cake recipe is a wheat free recipe and an egg free recipe but it does contain gluten in the spelt flour.

You would never believe that this pineapple cake contains no eggs because it was so fluffy and moist.

I use a glaze on my cake that gives the cake a sticky tasty coating, the glaze also made the cake glisten in the light.

A step-by-step video guide for this recipe will be uploaded soon.




Ingredients for Pineapple Loaf Cake Recipe


1 Small Pineapple
1 oz Oatbran
6 oz White Spelt Flour or Plain White Wheat Flour
2 tsp Candied Peel
3oz Sunflower Margarine
1/2 oz Light Brown Sugar
1 oz Ground Almonds
5oz Honey
1/2 tsp Bi Carbonate of Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder

For the Glaze
1 Tbsp Apricot Jam
1 Tbsp Powdered Sugar (I used golden sugar)

Note....''You can use a large tin of pineapple rings instead of fresh pineapple. Just drain off the juice/syrup and use pinepaple slices. Instead of blending the left over pieces of fresh pineapple add 2-3 Tbsp of the tinned pineapple juices instead.''

How to make Chef Jeenas Pineapple Cake Recipe


Take one small pineapple and carefully slice off the ends and down the sides of the pineapple to remove all of the skin.



Slice into rings.



Use a ring shape to cut through the centre of each pineapple slice.


Keep all of the left over pineapple pieces.



Place all remaining pineapple pieces apart from the pineapple rings into a blender and blend into a paste, you may need to add a very tiny amount of water to help blend the pineapple.



Use a mixer to mix together honey, margarine, ground almonds, oatbran and sugar.



Add candied peel, spelt flour, baking powder and bi carb mix very well.



Lightly grease a loaf tin.

Layer pineapple rings on top of the other at the bottom of the loaf tin.

Slice pineapple slices in half and place around the sides of the loaf tin.




Pour cake batter into the middle of the loaf tin and spread evenly on top.



Place into a hot oven at 180C for 60 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.

Do not open the oven door for at least 25 minutes.



Leave the cake to cool in the loaf tin for at least 15-20 minutes.



Use a sharp knife to carefully ease the cake out of the tin.

Mix together the glaze ingredients and gently dab and brush it all over the pineapple cake.



Leave the pineapple cake to cool down completely before slicing and serving.
