JEWEL PINEAPPLE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
•  Place 1/4 cup of melted butter into a 9x2 inch (deep dish) round cake pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Top with pineapple slices and arrange cherries between the pineapple slices. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave. Whisk in the sugars vigorously getting out any brown sugar lumps - mixture will be gritty. Whisk in egg, sour cream, milk, pineapple juice, and vanilla extract until combined. Slowly mix in dry ingredients until no lumps remain. Batter will be thick.
• Pour/spoon batter into prepared pan. Make sure it's not overflowing-- this recipe makes enough batter for a deep dish pan. If you find there is too much batter, make a couple cupcakes (20 minutes bake time) on the side. Bake for at 40-48 minutes. Cover loosely with aluminum foil at the 20-minute mark to avoid over-browning. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
• Invert cake on top of a cake stand or a large serving plate. Slice and serve warm, room temperature, or even cold. Pineapple upside down cake is traditionally served with whipped cream - it's a delicious combination. 
• To Store: Cover cake and store for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
