Pineapple Upside Down Cake


Pineapple Upside Down Cake, made with fresh pineapple and tepache, a type of pineapple hard cider, is the most delicious dessert you can make in a cast iron skillet! A layer of sweet and juicy pineapple pieces are smothered in a super sweet topping. Then the most moist and flavorful cake cooks on top.

Ingredients:

Topping:

  • 1/2 large fresh pineapple peeled, cut lengthwise into 8 pieces, and core removed
  • 8 tablespoons 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup hard pineapple cider can substitute with pineapple juice

Cake:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 8 tablespoons 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup hard pineapple cider can substitute with pineapple juice

Instructions:


  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • I recommend making this cake in a well-seasoned 12-inch cast-iron skillet. If you don't have one, you can make the topping in a pot and then transfer it to a 9x13 baking dish.
