PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



Pineapple Upside-Down Cake image

This Southern staple is the kind of cake that's always on the table, ready to greet anyone who comes over. Good enough for dessert, it's also not supersweet, so you could have it for breakfast with coffee or tea, or at any time of day. Made with canned pineapple and maraschino cherries (which can stay in the cupboard for a long time), it's a delicious and beautiful cake that's also budget friendly. The caramel finish is simple to put together, and the base is light and moist, but strong enough to hold up that joyful topping. If you don't want to use whole milk, you could use an equal amount of the reserved pineapple juice. The end result will be slightly sweeter, but that's not a bad thing.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup/110 grams packed light or dark brown sugar
1/4 cup/57 grams unsalted butter, melted and still hot
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1 (20-ounce/567-gram) can pineapple slices, drained
15 to 20 maraschino cherries, stems removed
2 cups/256 grams cake flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/2 cup/113 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup/93 grams plain Greek yogurt, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup/120 milliliters whole milk, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prepare the topping: In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, butter, vanilla extract and cinnamon (if using). Pour the mixture into an ungreased 9-inch pie dish or round cake pan that's at least 2 inches deep.
  • Using a clean kitchen towel or a paper towel, blot any excess liquid off the fruit. Arrange the pineapple slices to your liking in a single layer on top of the brown sugar-butter mixture, covering the base of the pan, then add the cherries wherever there's a gap. Place the pan in the refrigerator while you prepare the rest of the cake.
  • Prepare the cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  • Using a handheld mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter on high speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Add sugar and beat on high speed until creamed together, about 1 minute, scraping down the sides and the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed.
  • On high speed, beat in the eggs, one at a time, until combined, then beat in the yogurt and vanilla extract, scraping the bowl as needed.
  • Pour the dry cake flour mixture into the wet ingredients. Turn the mixer to low speed and carefully pour in the milk. Beat on low speed just until all the ingredients are combined. Do not overmix. You may need to whisk it all by hand to make sure there are no lumps at the bottom of the bowl. The batter will be slightly thick.
  • Remove the pan from the refrigerator. Pour and spread the cake batter evenly over the topping.
  • Bake for 40 to 55 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. (A couple moist crumbs are OK.)
  • Remove cake from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes. Run a knife along the edge to loosen, then invert the cake onto a plate. (Take care, as the pan may still be hot.) Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • To make the cake moist and flavorful, use fresh pineapple chunks. You can also use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
  • If you don't have Sprite, you can use another lemon-lime soda.
  • To make the glaze, use fresh lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice will work, but the flavor won't be as bright.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add more powdered sugar.
  • If you want a thicker glaze, add more milk.
  • Let the cake cool completely before glazing it. This will help the glaze set properly.

Conclusion:

This pineapple Sprite cake is a delicious and refreshing treat that's perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, and the combination of pineapple, Sprite, and lemon is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this cake a try.
