Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- Mix the Duncan Hines Supreme cake mix with the pineapple instant pudding, eggs, and Wesson oil until well combined.
- Pour batter into a greased cake pan.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until the cake is golden brown and begins to pull away from the sides of the pan.
Tips & Substitutions
For a lighter cake, consider using egg whites instead of whole eggs. You can also substitute the Wesson oil with applesauce for a healthier twist. To enhance the pineapple flavor, add crushed pineapple to the batter. If you prefer a gluten-free option, look for a gluten-free cake mix that can be used in place of the Duncan Hines Supreme cake mix. This cake is great for gatherings and pairs beautifully with American recipes.
Serving Suggestions
This cake is delightful on its own, but you can enhance it by serving it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Fresh fruit, like strawberries or additional pineapple slices, can also make a lovely garnish. For a festive touch, consider drizzling a simple glaze over the top. It also pairs well with Charlie Brown'S Brownies for a dessert platter.

Store any leftover Pineapple Supreme Cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, refrigerate it for up to a week. To reheat, place individual slices in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds or warm it in the oven at 300°F for about 10 minutes until heated through.
