Coming to Newport, RI, I had to explore a delicious recipe with PINEAPPLE!

You can check out my full post about Newport, RI. I’ve been here for Two months now, and time has flown by, but I am excited to get my blog into full swing. Highlighting recipes of great foods with fresh ingredients, all made from scratch. I am also excited to start exploring DIY beauty products. Also there will posts to highlight my travels and the different places I am visiting and learning from.

This pineapple breakfast cake is moist, easy to throw together, and not TOO sweet!
I likehow fluffy and light the cake is, so you can eat it as a brunch treat, or dessert with ice cream too!

The recipe is inspired from Almacucina from Food 52. I chose to use coconut flour instead of their suggestion for chickpea flour.

Enjoy!
