2. Mix the Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, add:
- Eggs
- Sugar
- Melted butter
- Vanilla extract
Whisk until smooth and well combined.

Pour in the crushed pineapple with all its juice. This is what makes the bake incredibly moist and flavorful. Mix gently.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, mix:
- Flour
- Baking powder

Slowly add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
5. Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
