This tasty treat was developed in the 1950’s and has far from gone out of style. Pineapple upside down cake is the perfect treat for those who enjoy cake but are not a fan of an overly sweet texture. This personal favorite has the light layer of brown sugar that seems to give a soft crunch on the outside. The caramelized sugars from the pineapple seep into the light fluffy cake, making for a sweet afternoon or a booming party. When you’re looking to impress your guests but don’t want a sugar bomb, try this recipe out.
Preheat your oven to 350F. In a cake pan, approximately 13 by 9, butter your pan. Sprinkle your brown sugar at the bottom of your pan. And arrange your pineapple slices on top. Next, arrange your cherries in the middle of the pineapple rings and throughout the brown sugar. You’re going to want to press gently into the brown sugar to ensure that they stick. Next, make your cake batter as directed, using your reserved pineapple juice instead of water that was directed on the cake mix box. Pour your batter over the pan of brown sugar, cherries and pineapple. Bake for 42 to 48 minutes. Once you remove from the oven, immediately run a knife over the edges of the baking dish. Set up a heat proof plate and carefully flip the pineapple upside down cake over so it gently plops onto the plate and out of the baking dish. Let sit for 30 minutes. Serve and enjoy.
