- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour (can use all white flour if you don't have this)
- 1-1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut (optional, I didn't use)
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon), (you can use pre-ground, too)
- 1 pinch ground dried ginger (about 1/16 teaspoon)
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 2 whole large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups grated (unpeeled) zucchini (*see Note)
- 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained (reserve in case you need it for the cake batter or the frosting)
- NOTE: I think that half the pineapple would have been better, and I will do that next time.
- NOTE: Because I'm trying to cut back on my sweet tooth, and fat, I didn't frost this cake. Undoubtedly, the frosting below is phenomenally good with this cake!

- 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese, softened (can use full-fat cream cheese)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
