Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan or two 9-inch round pans.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, and salt.
In another large bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, crushed pineapple with its juice, and mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring just until everything is combined. Do not overmix.
If using chopped walnuts or pecans, fold them gently into the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan(s). Smooth out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, you can serve immediately, store in the fridge for up to a week, or wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for longer storage (OAMC friendly).
