About this Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe

 This is a very old Pineapple Upside Down cake recipe. It is very sweet and very good! It doesn’t take long to put together, either. Using this same recipe, you can easily make mini-pineapple upside down cakes.

To make mini-pineapple upside down cakes, simply use a mini-Bundt cake sheet. If you’ve never seen one before, it’s like a cookie sheet with the impression of a dozen mini-bundt pans. Assemble the same way as instructed below but into the mini-bundt pans on the sheet.  It produces attractive individual servings. See the picture above.
