This pineapple upside-down cake is just like Grandma used to make. It\u2019s a moist yellow cake baked over caramelized pineapple, dotted with maraschino cherries, and flipped for a beautiful top with minimal effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I love making upside-down cakes for special occasions, and they\u2019re so easy!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Old-Fashioned Pineapple Upside-Down Cake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My grandmother inspired this pineapple upside-down cake. Well, her original recipe did! The first time I made it, my mom and I set out to decipher Grandma\u2019s notes on the recipe card, which were\u2026 vague, to say the least. Over the years, I\u2019ve continued to fill in the gaps and add my own spin to it, finally settling on the version I\u2019m sharing today. I like to think this updated version would make her proud<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cake is soft and fluffy, topped with rich caramelized pineapples and cherries just like the classic recipe. I still catch my breath before turning over an upside-down cake, anticipating how it\u2019ll turn out. What I love about this recipe is that there aren\u2019t any surprises. I\u2019m sharing my tips so that yours will come out perfect too. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
