Wow. We all loved this. It's not too sweet, just fluffy and good. For you American's out there - 350 degrees, 1 stick of melted butter, 8x11 pan, and I would recommend tidbits vs chunks (I'm sure they weren't around when recipe was written and probably not in Australia). I looked at the batter and went "no way this will fit in a 13x9x2 pan", so I put it in a smaller casserole dish. Mistake, I should have used my 8x12 meatloaf pan, or even the 13x9x2. I'll try those pans next time and let you know. The batter has a light sweetness and the cake is light and fluffy. Leftovers are great for breakfast with a cup of tea. I'll definitely be making again. VERY quick and easy to put together. One note - let it cool. I burned my tongue on the pineapple. <br/><br/>Thanks Cookingpompom! Made for Spring PAC 2011

My Poppy has long since passed, but I fondly remember him every time I log on. I'm a stay at home mum of four aged: 10, 8, 7 and almost 6. I have a severe egg allergy and am lactose intolerant, I enjoy working out ways to still enjoy food minus eggs and milk. I have been married for 14 years and have one very happy and well fed hubby.<br />My goal is to try one new recipe a week, for the past 8 years have achieved this. I own over 300 cookbooks, but no longer purchase them - but regularly print out recipes to try later.<br />When I am not cooking, I am busy household of 6 and going to the gym (to work off the wonderful calories I consumed the day before) and helping at school and church.<br />My philosophy in life is: as we have to eat, we may as well eat well.</p>
