Pineapple Upside Down Cake is my husband Paul’s favorite cake. This is a homemade cake with sour cream in the batter. The sour cream makes the cake light, soft and fluffy, we wouldn’t want it any other way would we? The top of the cake is a mixture of brown sugar and butter studded with pineapple rings, maraschino cherries and pecans. It’s baked in a 10 inch cast iron pan to golden delicious. Perfect with a cup of coffee or a big glass of milk. Homemade goodness from our house to yours, Enjoy!
