Pineapple Upside Down Cake is a classic cake recipe that is so soft and moist with a caramelized pineapple topping with maraschino cherries!
This recipe makes a very moist cake which is from the pineapple juice in the batter. If you prefer a dryer crumb, omit the juice and use all milk instead.
Turning the cake out can seem a little scary, but it’s not hard to do. You will need a plate that is at least 10 inches, and you should use oven mitts to protect your hands. Flip it quickly but carefully, so you don’t burn yourself.
Leftover cake should be loosely covered and stored in the refrigerator. It will keep well for three days.
