This is the best pineapple upsidedown cake ever! Every time I make it everyone cannot get enough of it! The cake is always gone within two hours of it being finished baking. I always add some of the pineapple juice in the cake batter, it gives it a nice extra juicer taste :) Thank you!

I used a can of crushed pineapple and skipped the cherries (didn't have them) and used the drained juice in the cake mix! Thanks so much for this recipe. Will be using it again!

The way everyone get gets pineapple is to use crushed pineapple, then all get some pineapple in their piece of cake.

I own an old recipe from an ex-wife. It uses yellow cake mix, adding pineapple juice instead of water. My recipe also calls for some amount of crushed pineapple added to the batter but I can't remember if it's half a cup or 3/4 cup. The crushed fruit does brighten up the taste in the end.

Good idea!!!

Okay, my cake is in the oven right now, I found a cast iron pan in our camping stuff took about 10 minutes of me scrubbing the pan before I felt comfortable to use it. The instructions were so simply, the preparation was fun, now I sit here after washing up the dirty dishes and waiting for the oven to do the rest, I hope that this will be the best pineapple cake I have made, oh I have made several in the past, but never looking as perfect as it taste, so hoping for this Easter day I have the whole perfect package cake to take to family Easter day dinner.

I made it using muffin tins and it worked great. The cake recipe was enough to fill 6 extra large muffin tins.

Question please... Can you freeze pineapple upsidedown cake?

Thanks for a great recipe!! I made this for Father's Day and it was delicious! My first time making one and this recipe is super easy to follow. I used a box cake ad plan to make the scratch just to compare the two. Cute and delicious... Everyone thought I bought it from a store! Great taste, easy to follow directions, and delicious!

This is the one of the best simple cake recipes I've ever made. I used a cast iron skillet and baked the cake for 33 minutes.

I don't scoff at those who use a cake mix but I do prefer to prepare a batter from scratch. I did use one of CM other yellow cake mix though called Easy Yellow Cake Mix. Very good.

FYI: I have used my share of cake mixes but again I just enjoy baking them from scratch with my children these days.

Can I use pineapple chunks instead of slices?

Made this tonight, I used canned pineapple chunks cause that's all I had.. sliced them in half and it was perfect!! Also I doubled the homemade cake recipe and cooked in long glass pan instead. My kids kept asking for more! Recipe def a keeper!

Thanks, this recipe was great and very helpful!

I had never made a pineapple upside down cake before and decided to give it a try. This was TRULY DELICIOUS!!! I used the box cake but substituted the water for pineapple juice from the can of pineapples. Made it even better in my opinion. Also made it once in Bundt form, muffin form, and in circular one. All turned out great!

Great when use old fashioned cast-iron pan. Works really slick. Presentation was wonderful and everyone wanted the recipe (& Frypan). Be quick in loosening the edges and turning over. Arrangement stays in place. Now I always have on hand pineapple slices and yellow cake mix! Delicioso

I never made this before because I thought it was hard! Turns out that with your help I was able to make it and it was amazing! Very simple steps!!

I made this tonight and it was the best upside dowm pineapple cake me and my husband have ever had so yummy!!! you gotta try this recipe ppll thank you so much for the recipe =)

Love this recipe, even though I have never make it with pineapple!!! I always substitute chopped rhubarb!!!
