THE BEST PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Half a cup of actual, unsalted butter
One and a third cups of brown sugar, packed
Three and a half cups of slices of fresh pineapple
Two and a third cups of all-purpose flour
Two cups of sugar

One teaspoon of baking powder
One teaspoon of salt
Two thirds of a cup of vegetable oil
One and a half cups of milk and one teaspoon of white vinegar
Two large eggs, whisked gently
One teaspoon of vanilla essence, pure

Put the butter in a glass baking pan that measures 9 by 13. To melt it, put the pan in the oven. After the butter has melted, evenly distribute the brown sugar on top of it, then the pineapple pieces. Put the pan aside.

Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a countertop mixer. Hand-mix using a wire whisk.
Add the eggs, vanilla, oil, and the mixture of milk and vinegar. To incorporate ingredients, use the whisk attachment and mix on low for 30 seconds.
After that, set the mixer to high and beat for three minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl a few times. Cover the pineapple in the cake pan with batter.

For heaven’s sake, either line the rack with aluminum foil or place the cake pan on a jelly roll pan.

If a toothpick is pushed into the center of the cake, it should come out with a few moist crumbs. Bake for 55 to 65 minutes.
Take the cake out of the oven when it’s finished. Using a butter knife, carefully remove the cake’s sides from the pan.
While the cake is still in the cake pan, carefully turn it over onto a clean jelly roll pan or big rectangular dish.

To allow the caramelized brown sugar to drip over the top of the cake, let the cake pan sit over the cake for three minutes before removing it.

Serve warm, room temperature, or chilled with maraschino cherries and sweetened whipped cream.
