Como fazer Upside Down Fresh Fig Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease and flour a 9-inch cake pan with 2-inch sides. Line the bottom with parchment paper, ensuring it extends over the edges for easy removal later.
  3. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) of butter.
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar and 1/4 cup honey until smooth and well combined. Set aside.
  5. Pour the brown sugar mixture into the prepared cake pan, spreading evenly.
  6. Arrange 1 pound fresh figs (or 1 cup dried figs, reconstituted in hot water for 15 minutes), cut-side down, in concentric circles over the sauce.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  8. In a separate large bowl, cream together 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  9. Add 3 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  10. Gradually add the dry ingredients and 1/2 cup milk alternately to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  11. Carefully pour the batter evenly over the arranged figs.
  12. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  13. Let the cake cool in the pan for 50 minutes.
  14. Run a thin knife or offset spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the cake.
  15. Place a serving platter upside down on top of the pan. Invert the cake onto the platter.
  16. Carefully remove the pan and parchment paper.
  17. Drizzle any excess sauce from the pan over the warm cake and serve.
