Ingredients

• 1 Pineapple rings
• 3/4 cup Brown sugar
• 3/4 cup Butter
• 10 Maraschino cherries
• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup Sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1/2 cup Milk
• 2 tsp Baking powder

Steps

1. Melt butter with brown sugar in a cast-iron skillet and arrange the pineapple rings and cherries in the caramel.
2. Whisk the cake batter and pour gently over the fruit — do not disturb the pattern.
3. Bake at 350°F for 40 minutes until a tester comes out clean.
4. Invert after exactly 10 minutes; too soon and it sticks, too late and the caramel sets.
5. Serve warm; the caramelized pineapple edges are the best bites.
