Oh, this is THE BEST way to make an upside-down cake, in a cast iron skillet! It is so yummy! And on a rainy day here in the Washington, D.C. area, a fresh baked slice with your favorite beverage (okay, Starbucks for me) -- what could be better?!* My grandmother, aunt, and mother always make this. ** sigh **

Awesome Pineapple Upside Down cake

I am going to do this one this week. I love pineapple upside downcake. It has got to be one of my very favorites, thanks for the new way of fixing it. I'll let you know how it goes.

My Mom always made it this way. Thanks for reminding me. I have a can of pineapple and my family loves the cake. I'll try it this weekend.

Bump.

I was looking for cast iron cooking recipes, and I ran across this. I made it tonight, and it is every bit as delicious as it promises to be!!

I took a quick taste-test tonight, and it is moist and WONDERFUL!! I don't think the OP is still a member of FV, but she left behind a really delicious legacy! :)
