Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven heats, cut your pineapple into bite-sized pieces. Dice or slice – your choice!
Step 2: Mix the Dry Ingredients
In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Step 3: Combine Wet & Dry
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a smooth batter forms.

Gently fold in the pineapple pieces, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 5: Bake!
Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and spread evenly. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
