PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE



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.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick plus 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 cups chopped fresh pineapple
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup whole milk
Cherry Glaze, for topping, recipe follows
1/2 cup cherry preserves
2 tablespoons pineapple juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pineapple and brown sugar and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pineapple is slightly softened and golden brown, about 6 minutes.
  • Whisk the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt together in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the remaining 1 stick butter and the granulated sugar together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated. Reduce the speed to low and add half of the flour mixture, followed by the milk and then the remaining flour, beating just until incorporated.
  • Divide the caramelized pineapple among six 8-ounce Mason jars, pressing with a spoon to compact the pineapple slightly. Divide the batter among the jars (a little over 1/3 cup per jar).
  • Set the jars on a baking sheet and bake until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool slightly.
  • Top each jar with a spoonful of Cherry Glaze.
  • Add the cherry preserves and pineapple juice to a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat until the jam cooks down slightly.

Provided by Garlicgoddess84

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus
9 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/2 pineapple, peeled, cored, cut in half lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch slices
1 1/2 cups pastry flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sour cream
3 large egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Stir together the melted butter, brown sugar and corn syrup and evenly coat the bottom and sides of a 10-inch glass pie plate with the mixture. Arrange pineapple on top.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the pastry flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt and thoroughly mix. In another bowl, whisk together the softened butter, sour cream, egg yolks and vanilla. Add to the dry ingredients and mix with an electric mixer at medium speed about 1 1/2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until thick and smooth. Using a spatula, spread the batter evenly over the fruit, building up the outside edges so the cake will be level when baked.
  • Bake 40 to 50 minutes, until golden brown and a tester inserted in the center comes clean. Transfer to a rack to cool 3 to 5 minutes (no longer) and then invert onto a serving plate, repositioning the fruit as necessary.
