Pineapple UpsideDown Cake

We are making a layered upside-down pineapple cake

My mom used to make pineapple upside-down cake, and I've never made it, so I'm very excited to learn

Well, this is going to be delicious. So I've got Melissa over here fixing to cream our two sticks of butter, y'all

and we're going to put in two and a quarter cups of sugar

and she's going to cream that while I pour in one and a fourth cup of whole buttermilk

And then I'm going to put our dry ingredients together, and we're going to alternate our dry with our whisk

I'm like you. I'm ready to get this cake together, honey. I know, right? All right

So I'm going to sift this cake flour. I'm going to use three cups of our flour

And I'm going to add two teaspoons of baking powder to our flour

and a fourth of a teaspoon of salt. And our butter is almost melted over there

I don't want to let that start burning. Crank it up a little

There you go. Whoa! Now we're cooking. Beat that butter and sugar, baby girl

All right, so I'm just going to sift in my dry ingredient

I think I'm just going to hit it on the sides to get that going. Do you really do a lot of cooking at home

I do. I like to entertain. Oh, that's great. entertaining house. I usually have people bring an idea over and then we just cook together at the house

Oh, see that to me that's that's so wonderful. I'm gonna add your five eggs. One at the time. I love my time

with my family and my friends in the kitchen. It's a great bonding time. It really is. You see it's starting to cream up, don't you

We've got one more egg to go. Look at this teamwork So now we got our dry ingredients So just beat that in and then I gonna add a little of our buttermilk Okay And then we just gonna keep doing that

See, this is exercise right here. Yeah. I feel it. I know

I know. Alright. So just back and forth. So that's looking delicious

So we're going to add now about a teaspoon of vanilla flavoring favorites

I'm gonna take my spatula and just help you get all those ingredients down in your bowl teamwork

Okey-dokey good all we've got to do now release your beaters right there

So if you want to start licking on those yeah, you may

Mmm, and I'm gonna so simple get our pans prepared. They're Teflon, but I'm gonna give them a spray

because I want to make sure that this comes out good. We've got our pineapples, we've got our brown sugar

and we've got our melted butter. Okay. So we're going to start with 3-4ths of a cup

I can help you. Of packed brown sugar. Just sprinkle that in your pan

and I'm going to do the same thing in mine. I love brown sugar

I do, too. and I'm going to spread that around in the bottom of my pan

Okay. All right, so we've just got a stick of butter here

and each pan is going to get like a half a stick of melted butter

I'm just going to drizzle that on top. I'm going to get this pineapple. Of our brown sugar, yeah

Get the pineapples going on. We should be able to get about

seven apple rings in each pan. I'm going to be doing the same thing in mine

I'm going to just plop a cherry in the center. Okay. All we going to do now is pour our batter on top Okay This is the buddy system again All right I love it So we want to make sure that our batter is evenly as possible

This is so simple. All right, so just take in our spatula and spread that on top of our pineapple and our butter and our brown sugar

All right, so that looks good, honey. So we preheated our oven, y'all, at 350

Okay. And we're going to bake this for about 45 minutes. All right. Okay

I'm here. Mm! So good. Love that batter, honey. Coming up, we're so close to finishing this cake, y'all, I can see the end zone

Touchdown! And you would think this slice would be fit for a ding

I'm going to need a bigger piece than that one. Y'all, Melissa and I are back in the kitchen now

ready to finish up that two-layered pineapple upside-down cake we started earlier

I've got one stick of butter. Melissa is going to measure us out three and a half cups

of confectionate sugar to our one stick of butter. And we're going to add two tablespoons of the pineapple juice

We're just going to ice the sides of our cake, not the top

Oh, nice. So those are so beautiful aren't these beautiful and they're still heavy Melissa. Oh wow. So I'm gonna come around here with a knife

To just loosen those edges and then we're gonna do the little cake prayer
