Apple Pineapple Pudding Cake

Want a quick and easy cake recipe that still tastes yummy?!?

Best thing about this cake is that its FAT FREE & SUGAR FREE! 
(Does that mean I can eat the whole thing?)


All you need is:
          1 x 440g can pineapple pieces
          2 cups plain flour
          2 teaspoons baking powder
          1/2 cup apple sauce
          2 Tablespoons agave nectar
          1 teaspoon vanilla

Mash the pineapple pieces with the juice from the can.
Mix the baking powder into the flour. 

Combine all ingredients together and mix well. 
Spread mixture into a cake tin lightly sprayed with oil.

Bake at 180C for 35 minutes.
Sprinkle with cinnamon and slice to serve.

This also works really well served as a pudding because it is not fluffy/airy like a cake but quite dense.
Great topped with whipped coconut cream.

This recipe also works well with pie apples in place of the pineapple.
For individual cakes the mixture also works well in ramekins but reduce cooking time.
Tip: This cake doesn't keep well as it has no preservatives in it. Best consumed close to time of cooking or within a day.
