I love pineapple upside-down cakes and I make them all the time, but I never thought that I would enjoy eating the mini cake version even more! It was incredibly delicious and tasted just as good as the whole cake version, but there’s just something more exciting about eating them in small bite-sized servings.

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F, then grease a 6-cup mini cake pan with nonstick cooking spray, and set it aside. Cut the butter into small pieces, then divide them evenly into each mini cake pan, and then place the pan in the preheated oven until the butter has melted.

Step 2

Sprinkle some brown sugar into each cup, then give them a quick mix to combine, and place a pineapple slice on top of each before placing a cherry at the center. Next, in a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until creamy, then add ¼ cup of pineapple juice, egg, and vanilla, and continue to beat them until smooth and combined.

Step 3

Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, then mix them thoroughly, and divide the batter evenly on each cup of the mini cake pan. Put them in the oven, then let them bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean.

Step 4

Once done baking, remove them from the oven, then let them sit on the counter for exactly 5 minutes, and run a knife around the sides to loosen them up. Invert the mini cakes on a serving plate, then let them continue to cool for around 30 minutes, and serve. Enjoy!
