Today’s recipe comes from two questions I receive on my homemade carrot cake recipe<\/a> quite often. Can you use crushed pineapple and can you bake it in a 9×13-inch pan? The answer? YES AND YES!<\/p>\n

Since Easter is so close, I felt that it was time to finally get to work on a pineapple carrot cake recipe. And I have to say, this recipe does not disappoint.<\/p>\n

In fact, I think I actually prefer how simple this recipe is to make compared to my layered carrot cake recipe. There’s no need to worry about leveling cakes or decorating the cake to make it look pretty. All you have to do is bake the cake, let it cool, then spread some cream cheese frosting on top.<\/p>\n

Recipe Ingredients <\/h2>\n

When it comes to good carrot cake, I have a few requirements. The cake must be moist (and stay that way!), have a good amount of spices but not too much, and it needs to be topped with cream cheese frosting.<\/p>\n

So what makes this carrot cake so good?<\/p>\n
