What is Granny Cake?
This Grandma Cake is an old-fashioned moist cake made from scratch with canned pineapple and peaches mixed inside the cake. The baked cake is then topped with a made from scratch coconut frosting, which makes this cake irresistible.
Sometimes I’ll mix things up and use a can of pineapple and a big can of tropical mixed fruit.
Need Granny Cake Without Pineapple?
Granny cake is easily customizable. Leave out the pineapple. Use a can of peaches and a can of mixed fruit.
Granny Cake is a Family Favorite
This is my husband’s favorite cake because it reminds him of a cake his grandma used to make for him when he was a kid. My son goes crazy for this cake too, I don’t know, it may be a man thing? One of my daughters loves this cake too.
This Cake Doesn’t Contain Oil or Butter
The cake itself doesn’t contain any oil or butter, so I like to tell myself it’s healthy to eat.
This Easy Cake = Dump, Mix, and Bake
The cake goes together easily. I dump all the cake ingredients into my KitchenAid mixer and mix it until it’s all blended and then pour into a cake pan sprayed with Pam. If you don’t have a KitchenAid mixer you could use a hand mixer.
