Pineapple Zuchinni Cake



Servings: 16 Serving Size: 1 slice Calories: 190 Points: 4 pts
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup flaked coconut
  • 2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg, optional
  • 1 pinch ginger, optional
  • 3 tbsp canola oil
  • 2 whole large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 cups grated zucchini, unpeeled
  • 20 oz. can crushed pineapple in juice, drained
Frosting:
  • 8 oz fat free Philadelphia Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract


Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, coconut, baking soda, salt, and spices; stir well with a whisk.

In a medium bowl, combine oil, eggs, and vanilla; stir well. Add grated zucchini and pineapple; mix well. Fold wet ingredients with the dry ingredients, batter will be stiff and dry but keep folding it and it will all come together.

Spoon batter into a Bundt pan or 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for about 33-40 minutes, depending on pan size or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and cake is pulling away from sides of pan. Cool cake completely on a wire rack.

To prepare frosting, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Spread frosting over top of cake. You can garnish with chopped pecans or walnuts, if desired (extra points).





Enjoy This YUMMY CAKE!
