Granny Cake with Pineapple and Peaches

Granny Cake Recipe

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.
