How to Make Caramel Pineapple Upside Down Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Arrange pineapple rings and cherries in the bottom of the prepared pan, creating an even layer.
  4. Pour the caramel mixture evenly over the fruit.
  5. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  6. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  8. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  9. Pour the batter over the caramel and fruit.
  10. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
