gluten free pineapple upside down cake
Yumm! It was hard to wait until after dinner for this gluten free pineapple upside down cake. 

Today I was really hungry for a gluten free pineapple upside down cake. I looked in the pantry and found that I had everything that I needed, so I set to work.

Everything I need

 

This gluten free version of the traditional pineapple upside down cake turned out really good.Here is the recipe:

1 and 1/2 sticks butter

3 eggs

1 Betty Crocker Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon extract

1 large can crushed pineapple, drained and juice saved

1/2 cup brown sugar

Enough water to make 2/3 cup liquid with the pineapple juice

Drain pinapple, and save 2/3 cup of the juice. If there is not 2/3 cup of juice, add enough water to make 2/3 cup. Set aside. Melt 1/2 stick of butter in an 8″ X 8″ baking pan. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter. Spoon the crushed pineapple over the butter/sugar in the pan. Set aside

Melted butter, brown sugar, and pineapple make up the delicious “bottom” of this upside down cake.

In a mixing bowl, add the cake mix, eggs, 1 stick of butter, vanilla and lemon extracts, and the 2/3 cup of juice/water. Beat on medium speed for 4 minutes. Pour batter over the butter/brown sugar/pineapple in the baking dish. Bake at 350° until cake is browned, about 45 minutes.

(It may take a shorter time to bake at lower altitude. I am at 8500 feet so things take longer to bake.) Let cool. Serve with whipped cream.

    I made this cake exactly as intructed used an 8 x 8 pan and baked for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. It rose nicely , however, when I cut it the outside pieces were cooked and the centre pieces were half baked??? No idea why, maybe should use a larger pan, higher heat and bake for an hour instead. Any tips because the recipie was very tasty when cooked?

      Have you checked to see that your oven is heating properly? I checked mine with an oven thermometer and it showed it was 50 degrees off. That could be a problem. Also, I used a glass baking dish, which does cook faster.
