- 0.5 tsp baking soda

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- One at a time, add the eggs to the mixture, ensuring each is fully incorporated before the next.
- Add the pineapple juice and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined—don’t overmix!
- Transfer your batter to the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top.
Baking
- Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use fresh pineapple juice for enhanced flavor. Gentle mixing prevents a dense cake. Consider adding coconut flakes for a tropical twist.
