Recipe View 1 hrs Bake (55-60 minutes): Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish or Bundt pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a small knife or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with foil.

Recipe View 30 mins Cool & Enjoy (30 minutes): Allow the cake to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before inverting it onto a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the cake from breaking apart. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or top with a cream cheese frosting.

For a richer flavor, consider using brown butter instead of vegetable oil.
Toast the walnuts lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor.
If you don't have crushed pineapple, you can use pineapple tidbits, just make sure they are well-drained.
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of ground ginger or cloves to the dry ingredients.
The cake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or frozen for up to 2 months.
