Upside Down Pineapple Sweet Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9" round cake pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Rub the sweet potatoes with a few drops of oil or a touch of cooking spray. Place the potatoes on the oven rack and bake until they are soft when squeezed, 40-60 minutes. Remove the sweet potatoes and set aside until cool enough to handle.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter with the brown sugar. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, tilting to coat the bottom evenly. Arrange six pineapple slices in a ring around the edge and one in the center of the pan.
• Peel the potatoes and place the flesh in a mixing bowl. Mash roughly with a fork. Add the eggs, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and 5-6 grinds pepper, and whisk until well-blended. Spoon the mixture into the baking pan, spreading it evenly over the pineapple and smoothing the top. Tap the pan sharply on the countertop three or four times to knock out air bubbles.
• Bake until the top looks dry and feels springy to the touch, 40 minutes. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean. Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 minutes. Run a knife around the side of the pan. Insert a serving plate over the pan and, holding the pan and the plate firmly with oven mitts, flip them so the potatoes drop on to the plate, pineapple side up. Lift off the pan. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a 10-inch heavy skillet with a heat-resistant handle (I use a cast iron skillet), melt 1/2 cup butter over very low heat. Remove from heat, and sprinkle brown sugar evenly over pan. Arrange pineapple slices to cover bottom of skillet. Distribute cherries around pineapple; set aside.
• Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Separate the eggs into two bowls. In a large bowl, beat egg whites just until soft peaks form. Add granulated sugar gradually, beating well after each addition. Beat until medium-stiff peaks form. In a small bowl, beat egg yolks at high speed until very thick and yellow. With a wire whisk or rubber scraper, using an over-and-under motion, gently fold egg yolks and flour mixture into whites until blended. Fold in 1 tablespoon melted butter or margarine and almond extract. Spread batter evenly over pineapple in skillet.
• Bake until surface springs back when gently pressed with fingertip and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes. Loosen the edges of the cake with table knife. Cool the cake for 5 minutes before inverting onto serving plate.
