MINI PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKES
Ingredients
Method
- Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F.
- Using non-stick cooking spray, grease the muffin tins. Also, open the cans of pineapple and make sure to keep the juice.
- Combine the melted butter with brown sugar until well blended. To the bottom of each muffin cup, add a spoonful of the mixture, evenly distributing it.
- Following the package directions ready the cake mix except using the juice from the canned pineapple instead of water.
- To the bottom of each muffin cup, add a well-drained pineapple slice. Then, in the centre of each pineapple, put a cherry cut side up. Lastly, pour each muffin cup with about 1/4 to 1/3 cupcake batter.
- Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean.
- When done, remove from the oven and allow the cakes to cool for at least 5 minutes. If needed, you can loosen the edges, placing a cookie sheet on top of the muffin pan to get ready to flip the mini cakes over.
- Notes:
- For this recipe, make sure to use a jumbo muffin pan because the regular muffin is not huge enough.
- You can make 18 mini cakes, but you could also make 6 mini upside-down cakes or a 9-inch round upside-down cake.
