Pineapple Upside Down Cake

has anyone doubled this and baked it in a 9x13 pan with success?

i can't get any cake that size to work. i did the white cake i based this on double and in a big pan... didn't work well. rise was off and it was "oily" for some reason

my mom made this for me.  it was the first time shes ever made a cake from scratch and she forgot to add the sugar to the batter.  she realized after the cake was in the oven and so she just hoped for the best.  texture wise the cake is a little dense, definitely not light and fluffy but it still tastes delicious!  the cake itself tastes kinda cobbler/bisquik-y but the brown sugar & pineapples on top are sweet enough to still make it taste desserty.  so - if you wanna cut a bunch of calories out of this leave out the sugar, it's still good!

Amazing.  My omni-husband has been craving pineapple upside down cake and BP certainly didn't let us down with this recipe.  We can't stop eating it!  I used the spring-form pan as suggested (30 minutes baking time), along with pineapple rings and cherries.  I miiiight just be picking up another can of pineapple rings tomorrow so I can make another one.    I know what I'm bringing to the next work brunch!

made this for a dinner party last night! I actually ended up making it twice. the first time around, i messed up and took it out of the oven too early. But it was so good, I kept eating the cooked parts as I prepared for the dinner. It was so bad for my belly! haha. Second time around, I ran out of sugar, so I used brown sugar and it didn't come out as sweet. nonetheless, it was great. Thank you for this easy and delicious recipe! definetly going to make this over and over and over...

so the first time I made this (a few years ago) I felt really bad because I ate half of it straight out of the oven. and it was intended to be a birthday cake.

this year, I made it for my omni dad again. we live together now, and I've decided its a bad idea to make "surprise" birthday cakes around him. I got home from work on his bday, ready with 50 individual candles  and the butthead had already eaten two slices without waiting! we didn't even sing this year. anyway, that was a few days ago, and tonight he asked for me to bake a second cake.

if thats not proof that this cake =  , then I dont know what is.

I made one change, subbed a less than what was called for (oil) with fresh applesauce. I had the same prob with the middle not cooking. AH! So i flipped it over to cook some more. Meanwhile, I whipped up some caramel in a saucepan. I then put this on the bottom of a cooking dish and carefully flipped the cake (once the middle started to cook noticeably) into that. Let it cook total prob 45 minutes. I also poured pineapple juice over the whole cake once I flipped it (the final flip) because that is what my aunt always did and it helped cause this cake is dense! It is very yummy, ah, but it was a struggle for me! It doesn't taste like pineapple upside down cake, the kind I remember, but oh well!! Thanks for the recipe!!

ok, so I had to review this again. My husband LOVED it and ate half last night. I thought it tasted better this morning, but the cake is still not a fluffy as I thought it would be.. DON'T SUB!!! I think this recipe is prob perfect as it is and I just messed with it!! Cause everyone had such great results!!

 ;)bThis was delish!!! I used fresh pineapple that i sliced into chunks and let sit in the fridge overnight. The cake was sweet and had a nice crumb to it and i loved the gooey pineapple topping, my kids loved watching me flip the cake over and they enjoyed it for breakfast today...I will def. make this again it is becoming a favorite cake...

LOVE this recipe!  It was so easy to make and my cake turned out wonderfully.  I added just a little more than a cup of pineapple juice and it made the cake turn out really moist.  I also used the pineapple rings instead of chunks.

I'm so glad to have found this recipe.  Pineapple Upside Cake reminds me of days past.  This taste just like the ones that my Mom made using a cast iron skillet!
The texture was spot on and I used pineapple rings and cherries in the middle and it looked and tasted great.

  I really liked this recipe!  Very easy.  I used pineapple rings, cherries, and a few pecan pieces on the "bottom".  I also used 2/3 cup Agave instead of the sugar.  I didn't add water to the pineapple juice since I was using Agave, to keep the liquid level good.

NUMMY!

Love this cake - so easy to make.  I use rings on the bottom and mix a can of crushed pineapple into the batter.  I use the extra liquid from the can of chunks in the mixture as well - it makes the cake extra-moist.
