A super easy grain-free cake recipe with tropical pineapple, spiced rum, coconut sugar, and butter.
Prep Time:15
Cook Time:30
Total Time:45 minutes
Ingredients
Scale
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup coconut sugar
1/2 cup dark rum
1 box Simple Mills vanilla cake mix
3 eggs
1/3 cup oil
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 20-oz can of sliced pineapple in pineapple juice
1/3 cup pineapple juice (I used the juice from the can!)
Instructions
Grease a glass 9×12 pan and preheat the oven to 350
In a large saucepan on medium heat, warm the butter until melted, and stir in the coconut sugar and rum. Bring up to a boil and cook on high heat for about 30 seconds. Add the sliced pineapples (keep the juice!), stir well, and remove from heat.
Prepare the cake batter by combining the mix with the pineapple juice, oil, mix, eggs, and vanilla. Stir well to combine.
Add the slices of pineapple to the bottom of the baking dish (keep the rest of the butter sauce) and pour the batter on top.
Bake for 28-30 minutes (until a toothpick inserted comes out clean) and set aside to cool slightly. Drizzle a little butter sauce on each slice before serving.
