Variations and Tips
: For a nutty touch, you can add 120 ml (1/2 cup) of chopped walnuts or pecans to the batter. For a spicy touch, try adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg. For coconut lovers, sprinkle the batter with shredded coconut before baking. This cake can also be made gluten-free by replacing the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend. For those with a sweet tooth, you can frost the cake with cream cheese frosting or a simple glaze made with powdered sugar and pineapple juice.
