Butter Rum Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Melt butter and pour into the bottom of a 9 ½-inch spring-form pan. (Place the pan on foil or parchment paper to catch any leaks).
• Press the brown sugar evenly over the butter.
• Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of rum.
• Arrange 7 pineapple slices over the brown sugar.
• Fill in the spaces with the pecan halves.
• In a large bowl, cream the margarine and granulated sugar.
• Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
• Beat in the vanilla.
• Puree the remaining 3 pineapple slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon rum; beat this into the margarine mixture until thoroughly combined.
• In a separate bowl, sift the flour, ginger, baking soda, and salt together.
• Beat dry ingredients into the margarine mixture alternately with the the 1/2 cup of reserved pineapple juice. Thoroughly combine after each addition, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary.
• Pour the cake batter over the pineapple slices in the spring-form pan.
• Bake until the center of the cake springs back when gently touched, 50 - 60 minutes, Test your cake after 30 - 35 minutes. **See COOKS NOTES in the recipe description.**.
• While the cake is still hot, remove the side of the pan. Invert the cake onto a platter and remove the pan bottom.
• Serve the cake warm or at room temperature.
• Top with whipped cream, if desired.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange pineapple slices in 4 rows by 3 rows. Place 1 cherry in center of each pineapple slice.
• In large bowl, beat cake mix, reserved 1 cup pineapple juice, the oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour batter over pineapple slices.
• Bake 28 to 33 minutes or until golden brown and cake springs back when lightly touched in center. Run knife around edges of baking dish to loosen cake. Cool 5 minutes.
• Place heatproof serving plate upside down on baking dish; turn plate and dish over. Remove dish. Brush or drizzle rum over cake. Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows, so each serving has a slice of pineapple on top. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the butter in an 8-by-8-by-2-inch square baking pan and set it over low heat to melt. When melted, sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter. Arrange the pineapple rings in a single layer on top of the sugar, making 3 rows. Cut the maraschino cherries in half, and place one half, cut-side up, in the center of each pineapple ring. Set the pan aside.
• Sift the flour, baking powder and salt, then sift once more. Set aside. Using an electric mixer, mix together the shortening, granulated sugar, egg and vanilla. Blend in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with flour. Stir only enough after each addition to combine.
• Pour the batter carefully into the pineapple-lined baking pan and bake for 40 minutes. Test for doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center or pressing the cake lightly with a fingertip; if the impression springs back, the cake is done. Run a knife around the edges of the pan and place a serving dish on top. Invert the cake onto the serving dish. Leave the pan inverted over the cake for several moments to allow the syrup to soak into the cake.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the cake batter: Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, 1/2 stick butter, the shortening, milk, eggs, vanilla and 2 tablespoons pineapple juice in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until well combined. (There will still be a few small lumps in the batter.) Set aside.
• Melt the remaining 1/2 stick butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat; swirl to thoroughly coat the skillet. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter, making sure it's evenly distributed-you want the entire surface of the butter to be covered in brown sugar. Do not stir. As soon as the sugar dissolves, remove from the heat and layer the pineapple slices over the top. If desired, place maraschino cherries in the centers of the pineapple slices.
• Pour the batter evenly over the pineapple slices and gently spread to even out the top. Bake the cake 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Immediately run a knife around the edge of the cake, then put a plate upside down on top of the skillet. Carefully invert the skillet so the cake is turned onto the plate. It should come out pretty easily; if bits of cake stick to the skillet, use a small knife to patch it together. Let cool slightly before cutting into wedges. It's best served warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Melt 1/4 cup butter in a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in brown sugar, pineapple juice, and dark rum. Cook over medium-low heat until sugar is dissolved and mixture is bubbling, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and spread pineapple slices in a layer over the brown sugar mixture, completely covering the mixture. Set skillet aside.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in small skillet over low heat until the butter begins to brown and release a nutty fragrance, about 5 minutes. Watch carefully, butter burns easily. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together flour, cardamom, salt, baking powder, and white sugar in a large bowl. Whisk in egg and cold milk until just combined. Pour in melted butter and stir to mix thoroughly.
• Pour batter over the pineapple slices in the skillet; spread evenly to cover.
• Bake in preheated oven until the cake begins to bubble around the edges, the top is browned, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in the skillet for 10 minutes.
• Loosen the cake from the skillet by running a knife around the inside edge of the cake. Invert a large plate over the top of the skillet and flip over, releasing the cake to show the pineapple slices on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet; stir in brown sugar.
• Stir in rum; let mixture bubble.
• Arrange fruit in mixture and intersperse pecans. Pineapples may overlap; place semicircles along sides of skillet; place cherries in middle of ring. Berries should be evenly distributed - their mirror image will be what the top of the cake looks like.
• For the batter, mix flour, baking powder, cornmeal and salt in a bowl.
• Cream butter at slow speed in an electric mixer and gradually add 1 cup of sugar. Beat until fluffy.
• Add egg yolks and vanilla.
• Add half the dry mixture, beating, then half the liquid (sour cream, Coco Lòpez or milk). When incorporated, add the remaining dry ingredients and then the remaining liquid. Add rosemary and pecan pieces (both optional).
• In another bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, then add 2 tablespoons sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
• Fold half of the whites into mixture, then fold in the rest. Spread the batter evenly over the fruit.
• Bake 45 to 50 minutes, until a knife inserted - into the dough only - comes out clean.
• Let the cake sit for a minute, then run a knife around the edge and invert a serving dish on top. Turn the skillet and serving dish over, gently rap the bottom of the skillet. Serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
• For the topping, beat 50g softened butter and 50g light soft brown sugar together until creamy. Spread over the base and a quarter of the way up the sides of a 20cm round cake tin. Arrange 7 pineapple rings on top (reserving the syrup for later), then place 7 glacé cherries in the centres of the rings.
• Place 100g softened butter, 100g golden caster sugar, 100g self-raising flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp vanilla extract and 2 eggs in a bowl along with 2 tbsp of the reserved pineapple syrup. Using an electric whisk, beat to a soft consistency.
• Spoon into the tin on top of the pineapple and smooth it out so it's level. Bake for 35 mins. Leave to stand for 5 mins, then turn out onto a plate. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Make topping:
• Cut pineapple crosswise into 3/8-inch-thick pieces. Melt butter in skillet. Add brown sugar and simmer over moderate heat, stirring, 4 minutes. Remove from heat. Arrange pineapple on top of sugar mixture in concentric circles, overlapping pieces slightly.
• Make batter:
• Sift together flour, cardamom, baking powder, and salt. Beat butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, then gradually beat in granulated sugar. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla and rum. Add half of flour mixture and beat on low speed just until blended. Beat in pineapple juice, then add remaining flour mixture, beating just until blended. (Batter may appear slightly curdled.)
• Spoon batter over pineapple topping and spread evenly. Bake cake in middle of oven until golden and a tester comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let cake stand in skillet 5 minutes. Invert a plate over skillet and invert cake onto plate (keeping plate and skillet firmly pressed together). Replace any pineapple stuck to bottom of skillet. Sprinkle rum over cake and cool on plate on a rack.
• Serve cake just warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Marinate pineapple rings in rum overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Melt the butter and brown sugar in a large iron skillet (at least 12"), or other heavy, oven-proof pan.
• Arrange the marinated pineapple rings in the bottom of the pan in a single layer and simmer slowly over low heat in the melted butter and sugar until the cake batter is ready to go into the pan.
• Mix the granulated sugar, reserved pineapple juice and egg yolks in a large bowl.
• Sift the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl.
• Beat egg whites until peaks form.
• Quickly mix flour mixture into the sugar and egg mixture until well blended. Gently fold in egg whites.
• Place one cherry half upside down in the middle of each pineapple ring. Sprinkle chopped macadamia nuts evenly over the rings, gently spoon the batter over the pineapple rings and macadamia nuts.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
• Let the cake cool until it is just warm to the touch, then invert over a large plate.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt brown sugar, butter, and honey for topping in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring until smooth.
• Pour butter mixture into the bottoms of two ungreased 8-inch round cake pans. Drain pineapple slices and reserve 1/4 cup juice for the cake. Layer pineapple slices on top of the butter mixture.
• Combine buttermilk, rum, and reserved pineapple juice in a small bowl. Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in another small bowl.
• Beat white and brown sugars with butter in a large bowl until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Mix in 1/2 of the flour mixture, then all of the buttermilk mixture, and finally the remaining flour mixture until well combined. Divide cake batter evenly between the two pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cakes are golden and a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
• Remove from the oven place on wire racks until completely cooled, 30 to 45 minutes. Turn one cake out onto a serving plate, then carefully turn second cake directly on top of the first.

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 10-by-2-inch round baking pan well with nonstick spray.
• Cream together the sugar, clarified butter and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. When the mixture is sandy and pasty, add the eggs and vanilla; the mixture will appear almost broken. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the batter. Finish by adding the buttermilk, making sure there are no lumps. Cover and set aside.
• Peel the pineapple and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch disks. Use a ring cutter to punch the core out of each ring.
• To make the caramel: In a pot fitted with a candy thermometer, mix the sugar and water to make a 'wet sand,' making sure the walls of the pot are clean. Bring the mixture up to 298 degrees F or until the sugar begins to turn light brown. Then hit it with the rum, cream, vanilla, salt and butter. Pour the hot caramel into the bottom of the baking pan, then evenly line it with the pineapple slices. Pour cake batter over the top.
• Bake until a cake tester comes out clean and the top springs back when pressed, 20 to 25 minutes.
• While the cake is baking, make the whipped cream: Place the cream, sugar, vanilla and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on speed 2 until soft, shiny peaks form, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• To make the brittle: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray well with nonstick spray. In a large pot, mix the sugar, water and corn syrup together. On medium heat bring sugar mixture up to 264 degrees F. Then add your macadamia nuts and your salt. Return to heat folding gently until the mixture reaches 315 degrees F. Then fold in your baking soda butter and vanilla extract and pour the mixture out carefully onto your greased sheet pan. As it is cooling you need to be spreading it to your desired width.
• When the cake comes out. Let it sit for 10 minutes and then turn it upside down and dump it in one fluid motion onto a cutting board. Cut into about 12 pieces top with a dollop of whipped cream and some of the cooled brittle.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the cherries and the spiced rum. In another bowl add the pineapple and the 3/4 cup of rum. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, add 1 3/4 sticks butter and the sugar and cream together until pale yellow, about 2 minutes. Stir in the eggs 1 at a time. Add the vanilla extract and set aside.
• In a separate bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir until a smooth batter forms.
• In a 10-inch cast iron skillet, over medium heat, add the remaining 1/4 stick butter and heat until the butter has just melted. Add the brown sugar and using a slotted spoon, add the pineapple pieces, reserving the rum. Saute until they begin to caramelize, about 4 minutes. Add the cherries and the rum they soaked in. Remove the skillet from the heat and light the rum with a long kitchen match. When the flames subside, return the pan to the heat and cook until most of the alcohol has evaporated. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside to cool 6 to 10 minutes before adding the batter. Remove half the fruit back into the reserved rum for garnishing later.
• Add the batter to the skillet and put in the oven. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for about 5 minutes before unmolding. To unmold, run a small knife around the edge of the cake, take a large serving plate and put it over the cast iron skillet. Carefully flip over and let sit for a couple of minutes until it releases from the skillet.
• Put the creme fraiche in a small bowl and stir in the zests. Cut the cake into wedges and serve with a dollop of creme fraiche and the reserved fruit.
