[CnD] recipe request-pineapple upside cake-easy

2013-05-02 Thread Sylvia Perez
Hi, I am looking for an easy Pine apple upside down cake
recipe-preferably something that uses a yellow cake mix (not that nasty
pineapple upside cake mix). This is for an independent living skills
class at a vision rehab class. Basic meal prep.

Open a can of ring pineapple. Sprinkle some brown sugar over the drained 
pineapple and pour the cake mix over the top. Best to put a piece of 
parchment paper in cake pan first.

Hi Sylvia,

I just looked in my recipe folder and found these. One with a yellow cake 
mix and the other under that is a scratch cake one. Hope this helps. Smile 
Katie  They follow..


  PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE
 made with yellow cake mix or from scratch

2/3 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar

Place the butter and brown sugar in a frying pan and melt until it boils or 
bubbles. A cast iron pan works well because it's heavy and will be less 
likely to scorch.


1 can pineapple slices
maraschino cherries (enough to fill centers of pineapples)

Place pineapples in the butter and sugar mixture. Put cherries in the center 
of the pineapple. Cut the slices of pineapple into halves and line the sides 
of the frying pan with them (standing up on edge).
Prepare a box of yellow cake mix following the directions on the box to mix 
the batter (do not bake in a separate pan; follow instructions below).


Pour the batter over the pineapple and cherries.

Bake at 350°F degrees. When the cake is done, loosen the edges with a butter 
knife. Remove from heat and allow to sit five minutes, then turn it upside 
down on a serving dish.


Optional: Instead of using a cake mix, you can prepare the batter from 
scratch using the recipe below, or any recipe for yellow cake.


Scratch Cake:

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk

Combine ingredients and beat 1 minute. Pour batter over pineapples and 
cherries (same as above). Bake at 350°F and follow same steps as above.






When you feel like you're drowning in life,
don't worry -- your Lifeguard walks on water.

I would think around 30 minutes. I always just lightly touch the cake to 
tell, or can smell it is done, but, stick a toothpick in the center of it 
and if it comes out clean then it is done.  Sorry, the recipe didn't say a 
time. On the yellow cake  mix box it usually tells a time to bake it.
