1 tablespoon baking powder
1 (15 1/4 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 (6 ounce) package frozen coconut

Grease and flour a tube pan. Mix all ingredients together using an electric mixer. Pour into the tube pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Test at 1 1/4 hours with a straw which will come out clean if done. Set aside to cool before removing from pan.
