Ingredients:

  • Cake:
    • 1 box (15.25 oz) sugar-free yellow cake mix
    • 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
    • 3 large eggs (or 3/4 cup egg substitute)
    • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (instead of oil)
  • Glaze:
    • 1 cup pineapple juice (reserved from the can)
    • 1/4 cup sugar-free sweetener (such as Stevia or Splenda)
    • 1 tablespoon light butter

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Cake:
    • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray.
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, crushed pineapple (with juice), eggs (or egg substitute), and unsweetened applesauce. Mix well until smooth.
    • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  2. Bake the Cake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    • Remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Glaze:
    • In a small saucepan, combine the reserved pineapple juice, sugar-free sweetener, and light butter.
    • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to boil and the sweetener has dissolved.
    • Reduce the heat and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Glaze the Cake:
    • Using a fork or skewer, poke holes all over the top of the warm cake.
    • Pour the warm glaze evenly over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.
    • Let the cake cool completely in the pan before serving.
