An upside down cake is a cake that is baked in a single pan with topping at the bottom of the pan. Chopped or sliced fruits like apples, cherries, pineapples and peaches along with butter and sugar mixture are placed on the bottom of the pan before the batter is poured. This simple, delicious and beautiful looking cake was on my to-do list for some years now. Finally I have made it.
Pineapple upside down cake can be a great after school snack or as a dessert for any kind of party. With the winter break approaching bake this cake along with your kids, and I promise they would love to do it.
