The Pineapple Upsidedown Cake was the first cake that I baked when I started this baking and blogging journey. I love the taste and texture of it and have been wanting to bake it again.
I recently bought a cake ring, which to me, is very multipurpose -- can be used for cake or bread. As I didn't have time nor energy to bake any bread, I chose to revisit the pineaple cake. But I didn't have any pineapple rings, only pineapple cubes, so I laid them around the bottom of the pan. Of course, it would have been perfect if there were more diced pineapples.
It's a really simple and idoit-proof cake and I made half the recipe. Try it!

Oh, I love this cake! I usually make apple or pear upside down cake and this looks very close. Pineapple is a great idea. I bet it adds a lot to the flavor. Thanks for sharing the recipe! I should try this one day.
