I fell in love Art Smith’s version when I had it at his Chicago restaurant for my birthday, but Olivia’s version is even better! I am requested each year to make this for my daughter-in-laws birthday and it is always a hit. I prefer 4 6 inch thin layers, so I used the 12 servings option, however, still takes 25-30 minutes to bake this moist, dense cake.

Hi Heather! You should be able to use an all-purpose GF flour blend instead. As for the other changes it would require some experimentation to get the right proportions. For best results make the recipe as written.

I’m looking to make this cake gluten free with less banana, more pineapple, (say a whole can of crushed), and add toasted coconut . What are your suggestions?

I made this cake last summer for a co-worker’s birthday and now my other co-worker has requested it for her birthday in January! It’s a truly delicious cake! Thank you for a great recipe!

Hi Peach! Converting pan sizes is always tricky. Here are some sites I use as a guideline:
http://www.joyofbaking.com/PanSizes.html
https://www.cookipedia.co.uk/recipes_wiki/Cake_tin_conversion_charts

It depends on how many 4″ cakes you want to make I suppose! If you have a bunch of pans you can just make the whole recipe and spread it out 🙂 If only making one 4″ cake I would at least halve the recipe and then make cupcakes with any extra batter.

Hi!

I would love to make this in a 4 inch round cake tins just like you did for the Raspberry Vanilla Mini Cakes!

Would I need to just follow the measurements of that recipie and apply to this? 😍

Thanks for sharing such an awesome array of recipies

I made this amazing cake for my son’s 22nd birthday because he requested a cake with interesting texture. Our family absolutely LOVED it and I’m making it again this year for his 23rd bday!
