This is my favorite cupcake recipes. I don't frost them, but you can if you like. I have found that the foil cupcake liners work best without the paper liners in them.

TOPSY TURVY CAKE

Butternut squash, apple and yes, pineapple makes this unique variation of a pineapple upside down cake the perfect choice for autumn. It has the traditional brown sugar-pineapple topping with a very moist and oh so delicious spice cake twist. The recipe was tested in a 4 quart oval crock-pot and would work fine in a 4 quart round crock-pot as well. A friend of mind reported that the cake worked well in a 5 quart round crock-pot.
