Pineapple upside down cake
Serves eight
10
Preparation time: 15 mins
Cooking time: 50 mins
YOU NEED:
- 130g butter, softened
- 100g caster sugar
- 3 eggs
- 30g Demerara sugar
- 220g pineapple rings in juice, canned
- 2 tbsp apricot jam
- 100g self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp milk
METHOD:
- Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4. Beat together 30g of the softened butter, Demerara sugar and jam, and spread over the base of an oblong non-stick cake tin. Arrange the pineapple rings over the base of the tin.
- To make the cake mix, beat together the rest of the butter (100g) and caster sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, with 1 tbsp of flour and beat well.
- Sift in the remaining flour and baking powder and fold in well with the milk. Spoon over the pineapple and level with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until well risen and golden – and when a skewer inserted into the middle of it comes out clean.
- Allow to cool in the tin for five minutes then loosen around the edge with a round-bladed knife.
- Place a large serving plate over the top and then carefully turn out the cake. Take care as the syrup will still be very hot.
