How to make Pineapple Upside-Down Bundt Cake
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C. Using cooking spray, grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan. Then, flour and set aside.
Step 2: In the bottom of the prepared pan, pour the melted butter. On top, evenly sprinkle with brown sugar. Over a measuring cup, drain the pineapple rings, setting the juice aside. In half, cut the rings. Around the pan, place the halved pineapple rings alternately with the maraschino cherries. Set aside.
Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, place the cake mix and pudding mix. Mix well until combined. Into the reserved pineapple juice, pour enough milk to make 1 c of liquid. Then, add this to the cake and pudding mixture.
Step 4: Add the vegetable oil and mix on low speed. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating until combined. Adjust the speed to medium and mix well for about 2 minutes until well blended and smooth.
Step 5: In the pan, pour the batter over the pineapples and cherries.
Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out clean.
Step 7: Remove from the oven when done and allow the cake to cool for about 10 minutes. Then, take the cake out of the pan.
Tip:
For this recipe, you can use a pineapple cake mix in place of yellow.
