Pineapple Upside-Down Cake image

Can you imagine a world without pineapple upside-down cake? Neither can we! And this recipe is by far the greatest of all time. Brown sugar and butter create a rich, caramel glaze that coats juicy pineapple rings, maraschino cherries and a golden-brown cake-what's not to love? But the true secret to this cake's beauty is in the "flip" that happens when you remove it from the oven. It might sound intimidating, but it's so much easier than you think! The result is a picture-perfect upside-down pineapple cake made from scratch.

Time 1h10m

Yield 9

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
9 slices pineapple in juice (from 20-oz can), drained
9 maraschino cherries without stems, if desired
1 1/3 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup milk
1 egg

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. In 9-inch square pan, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over melted butter. Arrange pineapple slices over brown sugar. Place cherry in center of each pineapple slice.
  • In medium bowl, beat remaining ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl constantly. Beat on high speed 3 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over pineapple and cherries.
  • Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately place heatproof serving plate upside down over pan; turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over cake a few minutes so brown sugar mixture can drizzle over cake; remove pan. Serve warm. Store cake loosely covered.
