  • Total Time: 90 minutes
  • Yield: 12 slices

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple (with juice)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a bundt or loaf pan thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in vegetable oil until combined.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  6. Fold in sour cream, then gently fold in crushed pineapple (with juice) and chopped strawberries.
  7. Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for 60–75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangier flavor.
  • Add lemon zest for a citrusy twist.
  • Drizzle with a glaze made of powdered sugar and pineapple juice for extra sweetness.
  • Mix in chopped pecans or walnuts for added crunch.
  • Store at room temperature for 2 days, refrigerate up to 5 days, or freeze slices for up to a month.
