1 Cup lightly packed brown sugar

Beat egg whites just until soft peaks form. 8. Gradually add white sugar into egg whites, beating well after each addition. 9. Beat egg yolks with fork or whisk, high speed, until thick. 10. Using a whisk or spatula and an over/under motion, gradually fold in egg yolks and flour mixture into the egg white mixture. 11. Fold in the tablespoon of butter (melted) and the almond extract. 12. Spread batter evenly over the top of the pineapples. 13. Bake for 45-60 minutes until golden brown and surface springs back when pressed with fingertip. 14. Loosen the edges of the cake from the pan with a cake knife. Let cake cool for at least five minutes before flipping over onto serving dish.
