I loved the caramelized sugar topping and the tartness of the Pineapple...
I came across a Cranberry Upsidedown Cake recipe but for some reason it didn't come out very well, so I went back to my good old recipe for the Pineapple version modified it a tiny bit, and it came out perfectly!!
I figured it would be a lovely holiday recipe to have during the season of lots of friends and family coming around. I love to hear your stories so please send them to me!
Ingredients
1/4 cup unsalted butter and 1/3 cup unsalted butter
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
12 oz package of fresh cranberries ( substitute 1 can of drained pineapple slices for pineapple version)
1 1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 large or 2 medium eggs
Prepare
*Heat oven to 350 degrees
* In a cast iron skillet put 1/4 cup butter to melt on medium heat
* Add the brown sugar to the butter and let it melt, be careful not to burn it!
* In a bowl add the flour, salt and baking powder
* In a mixer add the butter, sugar and egg and whisk until creamy
* Slowly add the flour mixture
* At the end add the milk and with a spoon finish mixing together
* Add the mixture to the cast iron pan and bake in the oven for 45 minutes
* Get your cake plate and when the cake is done cooking place the cake plate over the cast iron pan and flip it over
* I like to serve this with fresh whipped cream and while it is still warm..

OK, here is the gluten free version...I used the same recipe but instead of regular flour I used a gluten free flour made for baking. (Gultenfreecreations.com has a good one) When I added the gluten free flour I also added the milk and then used my mixer to beat until smooth. Gluten free flour is really fine and it did not mix well without adding the milk at the same time. Everything else is the same as the original recipe.at 3:51pm on December 28th, 2009
It turned out awesome!
