Recipe: Pineapple Butter Cake

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 350°F and butter a 9-inch round cake pan, optionally lining it with parchment.
In a frying pan over medium heat, melt the butter and reserve 6 tablespoons for later. Add the chopped pineapple and cook for about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
In a large bowl, beat the whole eggs and egg yolk until blended.
Add the reserved melted butter, sugar, vanilla, and lemon zest to the egg mixture and stir until smooth.
Fold in the flour mixture and cooked pineapple into the egg mixture until just combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top.
Bake the cake for 30-35 minutes until browned.
Cool the cake in the pan for 5 minutes, then invert onto a plate to remove the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
Dust with confectioners sugar before serving.
