Pineapple Upside Down Cake is a timeless dessert. Moist and fluffy cake that’s baked on top of melted butter, brown sugar, pineapple slices and cherries. It’s easy to understand why this eye catching dessert has been handed down through the generations.

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Pineapple Upside Down Cake was Grammy’s specialty! I can remember her serving this spectacular creation at many of our weekly Sunday gatherings. Grammy took Sunday dinner very seriously. It was always an all out smorgasbord! Besides the main course there were several sides to choose from. She usually served at least 5 or 6 different vegetables. Maybe that’s why she would make Pineapple Upside Down Cake for dessert so often. It’s easy to make ahead of time and creates such an elegant presentation. Or maybe she made it because it so unbelievably delicious! What ever her reason was, I hope you enjoy her recipe as much as we all do.

      Thank you so much for stopping by! I will definitely be sharing on My recipe magic. I am just beginning and having so much fun.
      I am glad you like my grammy’s cake. 🙂 We just recently lost her and my blog is kind of like my tribute to her since she was my biggest inspiration in the kitchen. I will be stopping by both of your sites to share often. Thank you.
