Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe

16

Ingredients

2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
1 (20-ounce) can pineapple slices, drained
10 maraschino cherries
1 (18.25-ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over bottom of two 8-inch round cake pans and pour butter evenly over sugar.

In each pan, arrange pineapple slices in a single layer over sugar and place a cherry in center of each slice.

In a large bowl, combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs; beat until well combined.

Evenly divide batter between the two pans and bake 30 to 33 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center of each comes out clean. Let cakes stand 5 minutes.

Loosen gently with a knife and invert onto 2 platters. Serve warm, or allow to cool completely before serving.
