Microwave Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Grease an 18cm round dish and place a greased circle of paper in the base.
• For the caramel, cream brown sugar and 2 tablespoons butter and spread over base.
• Arrange a slice of pineapple in the centre with half circles around it. Fill spaces with cherries.
• For the cake mixture, beat 60g butter and sugar to a cream. Add egg and mix carefully without beating.
• Add the sifted dry ingredients alternately with the milk and mix.
• Pour mixture over caramel and fruit.
• Cook on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) for 6-7 minutes or until just firm in the centre. (I had to put mine on for an extra 2 minutes and 50 seconds, it will vary according to your microwave).

• Serve hot with custard or cream, or warm for morning tea.

• Spread the batter over the pineapple. Microwave in 30-second intervals until the cake is slightly domed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 90 seconds. Cool slightly; the cake should easily pull away from the sides of the mug. Invert the cake onto a plate and uncover. Serve with whipped cream if desired.
