HEALTHY AIR FRYER BAKED PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN OATMEAL

Steps:

• Spray an 8-by-8-inch baking dish without handles with nonstick cooking spray.
• Slice the pineapple into four 1/4-inch-thick rings and cut the remaining pineapple into small dice. Measure out 1/2 cup diced pineapple and set aside, reserving the rest for another use. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar over the bottom of the prepared baking dish and arrange the pineapple slices in a square in the dish. Place a cherry in the center of each pineapple ring.
• Combine the oats, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the remaining 1/3 cup brown sugar, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, almond extract, and eggs in a separate bowl. Pour over the oat mixture and stir to combine. Fold in the chopped pineapple. Spoon the oatmeal mixture over the pineapple rings, spreading to cover. Cook in a 6-quart air fryer at 325 degrees F until puffed and golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes (see Cook's Note).
• Let cool in the baking dish for 5 minutes, then gently loosen the sides with a butter knife and flip the baked oatmeal out onto a cutting board, to reveal the pineapple slices. Let cool for 10 additional minutes before slicing.

EASY PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). In 13x9-inch pan, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange pineapple slices on brown sugar. Place cherry in center of each pineapple slice, and arrange remaining cherries around slices; press gently into brown sugar.
• Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 1 cup. Make cake batter as directed on box, substituting pineapple juice mixture for the water. Pour batter over pineapple and cherries.
• Bake 42 to 48 minutes (44 to 53 minutes for dark or nonstick pan) or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately run knife around side of pan to loosen cake. Place heatproof serving plate upside down onto pan; turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over cake 5 minutes so brown sugar topping can drizzle over cake; remove pan. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool. Store covered in refrigerator.
