Ingredient Tips: Using unsweetened applesauce instead of vegetable oil reduces the fat content and lowers SmartPoints. Sugar-free pistachio pudding mix also helps reduce sugar and calories without sacrificing flavor.
Storage: Store any leftover Pistachio Pineapple Cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
Variations: For a twist, you can add shredded coconut to the batter or sprinkle it on top before baking for added texture and flavor.
