How to Make Tropical Pineapple Carrot Cake To Die For

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or a 9x13 inch lasagna pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine the grated carrots, crushed pineapple (drained), and pecans. Gently fold this mixture into the batter.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan(s).
  7. Bake for 55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If using a 9x13 inch pan, baking time may be slightly less. Check at 50 minutes.
  8. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once completely cool, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting or pineapple glaze.
