Easy Pineapple Angel Cake

EASY PINEAPPLE ANGEL FOOD CAKE
Box of Angel Food Cake mix (just the contents of the box, no need to follow the directions on the box), and combine it with a 20 ounce can of crushed pineapple in its own juice.

(No need to use a mixer, just stir it by hand) When you do this, something magical happens. The mixture starts to froth and it turns into an amazingly airy, fluffy bowl of deliciousness right before your eyes. Once it's all mixed up, simply pour it into a 9 x 13 pan and bake it at 350 for 30 min.
The frosting....no recipe for this but I would combine some of the crushed pineapple with a can of vanilla frosting. Maybe a pinch of the pineapple juice, too.

Simplest easiest recipe ever ... and the bonus that you can keep the ingredients in your cupboard for the times you need a cake instantanly and don't have the time for all the work!

If you want some more like it ... use a can of pie filling instead of the pineapple.
Any flavour you wish!
And if you want faux black forest cake ... add 1/3 to 1/2 cup bakers cocoa to the dry cake mix and then combine all with cherry pie filling. Ice with whipped cream (or cool whip).

You can make them in the 9x13 as you have mentioned ... or can use an angel cake or bundt pan. Even Muffin tins.

Also, there's LOTS more variations with a few extra ingredients added in ... just ask Mr. Google!

Sounds yummy I will have to try it out.

And for a summery flair frost with one can of crushed pineapple with the juice mixed with a box of vanilla pudding mix then stir in a cup of cool whip. I frost my angel food cakes with this all the time, also good on spice cake.

With your recipe are you still using the Angle Food cake mix or any cake mix

Angel Food Cake Mix
and then do just the same as you do with the crushed pineapple.

So the recipe is ... mix one box of angel food cake mix with one can of ____________.
Use the box directions for baking time and temperature according to the size/shape of cake pan you use.

Easiest recipe you'll ever find!

the other day I made a chocolate cake mixed with a can of root beer and it is very good. no eggs oil or water/milk
have been told that this can be done with a white cake mix and a cream soda pop

Yes ... any regular cake mix ... any soda/pop.
Possibilities are endless.

If you only want a small cake then use a single pouch package and 1/2 can.
Double layer or 9x13 or cupcakes, use the regular box mix and full can.



LinMid ... to clarify ... this one is for regular cake mixes (any flavour).
The earlier recipe was one step angel cake mixes

That is my favorite cake (angel food w/pineapple). I usually just add some low cal Cool Whip on top when served.

That is a Weight Watchers recipe. It is so good.

KimmerB 03-25-2013 03:12 PM

Sounds good I just saw the angel food cake with 2 cans lemon pie filling, mix and bake. Will have to try both.
I do make a spice cake mix (or chocolate) with only a can of pumpkin that is very good. Thank you.

I tried the Angel Food + Crushed Pineapple and it was delicious! Really a nice fast cake and so easy! Next time I'm going to bake it in two round pans, fill it with Pineapple Fluff and frost with Cool Whip.

Ruby the Quilter 03-27-2013 08:23 PM

Do you have the grease the pan or can you use an angel food cake pan?

reeviint 03-27-2013 09:42 PM

I am quite health conscious person,so i always try my best to eat healthy stuff.add 1/3 to 1/2 cup bakers cocoa to the dry cake mix and then combine all with cherry pie filling.

Do you mix the pudding according to the directions or just use the dry mix (like in the cake recipe)? Either way it sounds like a winner. I might add some coconut.

alikat110 03-31-2013 09:17 PM

Oooh, this sounds amazinly delicious.

LUANNH 04-01-2013 09:23 AM

Dakota Rose... You just mix the dry pudding mix with the can of crushed pineapple with the juice and then add in the whipped topping and frost the cake with it. We use this for a lot of desserts now. LOL Hubby says all the calories fall out when you put it on your plate.

Keep Them In Stitches 04-01-2013 01:42 PM

Thank you. Going to try this one, Bookmarked it.

yel 04-01-2013 01:44 PM

i made one over the weekend and put pecans and coconut on top before putting it in the oven ......OMG

Freckles48 04-15-2013 03:30 AM

It is good. I made it and gave it to some neighbourhood twins and then one came back asking for the recipe. Yum and easy!!!!

zennia 04-22-2013 11:41 AM

Have your recipe in the oven right now. Sounds so good. Cant wait to try it.

ScubaK 04-23-2013 09:05 AM

This just came out of the oven and smells wonderful!

zennia 04-23-2013 06:23 PM

Tried it. Loved it. Took it to a party last night. Brought home an empty cake plate. Thanks for the recipe.

nanacc 04-25-2013 10:27 AM

I entered this idea before, but here it is again. In the pineapple and angel food mixture, I sometimes add a package of raspberry jello. Would work with other flavors......Really good!

sewmuch 05-19-2013 10:31 AM

Made this last night for friends, added whipped cream on top, they loved it......
