This Easy Pineapple Coconut Bundt Cake Is Perfect For Summer
I am partnering up with Land O’Lakes again to bring you this awesome cake.
With these incredibly hot summer months upon us in Florida, I have been craving delicious frozen cocktails like crazy. Too bad I have to wait until August to drink one again!
While I may not be able to drink a Piña Colada just yet, I am totally within my pregnant rights to crank up the air conditioning and bake a cake. My electric bill is going to be through the roof! ;-)
Luckily, I finally got a nice break from the heat last week on a fun visit to Minnesota. Land O’Lakes took all of us Kitchen Conversation bloggers out to one of their dairy farms to really see what the day to day life is like on a dairy farm. Sadie Frericks (who also blogs at Dairy Good Life) graciously let all 9 of us come visit her farm for the day and ask her a billion questions.
Sadie’s farm has approximately 75 cows and it takes 3 hours for each milking…and they have to be milked twice a day. Whoa. I was so interested in the process, but I was even more interested in meeting all the adorable cows. Each of their cows has a name her and her family have picked out, but as she showed us, they also each have their very own personalities! It was a blast getting to see behind the scenes of where some of Land O’Lakes milk comes from!
I Love The Tropical Flavors In This Cake Recipe
But let’s get back to what is important…this cake! I just love how the tropical flavors come together in this dessert. The light, moist Bundt® cake makes a perfect dessert for steamy summer nights. Even better, I love how this recipe calls for four perfectly sized Land O Lakes® Butter Half Sticks. It makes measuring so easy—with no leftover portions hanging out in your fridge.

Thank you for your reply Jessica. Is the crushed pineapple to be drained?
Yes! Drain the juice out of the pineapple!
I do not have coconut milk, shall I use regular? And I do not have unsalted butter, shall I just use my salted butter and omit adding the salt. I am really wan to bake this bundt cake! Thank you.
Hi Barbara, yes all of those swaps should work out ok!
Bless your heart Brenda and all those that try this recipe.
Just to reiterate something most of you have heard in the past, “there are no stupid questions”!!
With that being said, Never question the baker…please!!!
I doubled the recipe. For those with questions, that’s a whopping 12 eggs and like 8 half sticks of butter or four (ish) whole sticks of 100% real, unsalted gold.
I made three smaller cakes with pineapple topping and 36 muffins without icing.
The muffins are for the freezer and a later date with a pineapple or clementine glaze.
It’s in the low 30’s here, degrees.. I just rinsed out the last of the cupcake pans, all the machines are clean and the counters are clear. The fireplace is glowing, i am snuggled up with a cup of bold coffee and some delicious tropical vibes.
Thank you for sharing Brenda. You are Friggin’ Amazing!!!
Please feel free to stop by any time you come to town.
I often say, it would be nice if someone baked me a cake sometime.
I would be honored to bake with you Chick!!!
Stay warm, stay safe, keep an eye on the cake..
Jessica!!!!
I’m sorry, I don’t know why I called you Brenda. Now you’re never going to come to bake at my place.
I am not sorry about all the rest of the things I said.
Thank you again!!
Have fun and keep posting!!!
That’s ok, you can call me Brenda! :-) Haha! I’m glad you enjoyed the cake!!
I made this into cupcakes (I doubled the pineapple topping because you can skip out on the gooey bits!). And they were delicious! Thank you so much. Coconut pineapple upsidedown amazingness!
Should this cake be refrigerated?
