Tropical Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe | Club Foody

 

When I was a young lady, I really enjoyed making desserts then I slowed down and now, I serve them only when I have people over for dinner. There was a cake that people loved making back in the 60s, 70s & 80s. To me it was good but after tweaking it a few times, I ended up with an even better version calling it my Tropical Pineapple Upside Down Cake!
 
Yes I know! You’ve probably all had that popular cake before but let me tell you that this improved version is incredible! It tastes almost like a Piña Colada in a dessert form! I still use the “traditional” pineapple rings along with the maraschino cherries but there are a few added ingredients that make this cake sooo good! Curious to find out what they are…
 
I use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar – this alone makes the Tropical Pineapple Upside Down Cake more interesting! To make it moister, buttermilk and sour cream is used as well. Now the two others that make it Piña Colada-ish are dark rum and sweetened shredded coconut. That’s right! With a little of both, it brings this classic dessert to a whole new level of yumminess!
 
To decorate the cake, I use a pineapple ring that I place in the middle and then half slices of pineapple around in a circle before putting maraschino cherries in the middle of each. On the sides of the springform pan, I also place half sliced pineapple rings, upside down. When I pour the batter over the fruits, I put more cherries in the middle of each side ring before gently spreading the batter towards them to secure the cherries on the side. This is how I like to make mine but feel free to decorate yours the way you prefer.
 
This Tropical Pineapple Upside Down Cake is so flavorful! It’s is a delicious twist on an old classic. Easy to make and so colorful, this is a dessert you can serve all year round…
Bon Appétit!
