Instructions to make Moist Pineapple-Carrot Cake:

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!
