Moist Pineapple-Carrot Cake step by step

1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius and prepare your baking tin by applying some butter and dusting with flour. Measure all your other ingredients..
2. In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and the spices. Add in the sugar and mix well with a spoon..
3. In a separate bowl, add in the eggs, oil and vanilla essence. (Looks like its smiling at me 😊 haha). Whisk well until well combined..
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet in batches and mix with a whisk until just combined. This is when you no longer see any more flour..
5. Switch to a spatula or wooden spoon and add the carrots and pineapple to the batter. Fold them in gently. If you are using fresh pineapple, put the pineapple on a sieve and gently toss it around to remove excess juice. Save the juice for the icing. Transfer your mixture to your prepared baking tin..
6. I used a 7 inch round cake pan as I wanted the cake spread out as it is a small amount of batter. Use a loaf pan or 6 inch cake pan if you want some height. Bake for 45-50 min until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean..
7. Remove your cake pan and let it cool down for 10 min before transferring to a wire rack for it to cool completely..
8. When your cake is cooled down, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl put your icing sugar and add the 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice and mix well. Add a tiny bit of yellow food color to give it that pineapple color. Pour the glaze over your cake or put it in a piping bag and drizzle over your cake..
9. Let the icing set for a few minutes then slice, serve and enjoy!.
