Steps:
- Line a 9x13inch rectangular cake tin with baking paper or a reusable cake liner.
- Heat butter and sugar in a saucepan over medium low heat. Stir until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Turn off heat when the caramel comes to a simmer.
- Spread the caramel over the bottom of the tin, edge to edge, and top with the pineapple slices, cutting them in half to fit if needed.
- Preheat the oven to 170C (340F). Mist a rectangular tin with cake release and line with baking paper (preferably a strong cake liner) letting the edges hang over the sides.
- Put the flour, sugar, baking powder and bicarbonade of soda in a large mixing bowl and mix together to combine.
- Add the softened butter, eggs, milk, vanilla and lemon zest.
- Start beating at lowest speed setting until ingredients come together. Increase the speed to maximum and beat until the batter is completely smooth - about 30 seconds to one minute. Stop the mixer and scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl halfway through.
- Gently spread batter over the pineapple slices and level using a spatula.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cake is golden and feels springy to the touch. A skewer or knife inserted in the centre should come out clean - if not cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Leave cake to cool in tin for 20 minutes. Lift the cake out of the tin using the overhanging paper and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
- Heat the jam and juice in a saucepan until bubbles appear. If the jam is not smooth then pass it through a sieve.
- Brush the cake with the warm jam to cover.
- Add the cherries if using, slice and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Pour 1/4 cup melted butter into an ungreased 9×2 inch pie dish or round cake pan. (Make sure the pan is 2 inches deep. I recommend this pie dish, which is 1.8 inches deep but I never have an overflow issue.) Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Blot any excess liquid off the fruit with a clean towel or paper towel. (The wetter the fruit, the more likely the cake could overflow or the topping could seep over the sides when inverted.) Arrange about 6-7 blotted pineapple slices and all the cherries on top of the brown sugar. I like to halve 3 pineapple rings and arrange them around the sides of the pan, too. See my photo and video above for a visual of the arranged topping. Place pan in the refrigerator for a few minutes as you prepare the cake batter. This helps solidify or "set" the topping's arrangement.
- Whisk the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the sugar and beat on high speed until creamed together, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. On high speed, beat in the egg whites until combined, then beat in the sour cream and vanilla extract. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed. Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Turn the mixer onto low speed and as the mixer runs, slowly pour in the pineapple juice and milk. Beat on low speed just until all of the ingredients are combined. Do not over-mix. You may need to whisk it all by hand to make sure there are no lumps at the bottom of the bowl. The batter will be slightly thick.
- Remove topping from the refrigerator. Pour and spread cake batter evenly over topping.
- Bake for 43-48 minutes, tenting foil on top of the cake halfway through bake time to prevent the top from over-browning before the center has a chance to fully cook. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out mostly clean- a couple moist crumbs are OK. Don't be alarmed if your cake takes longer or if the cake rises up and sticks to the foil. (We serve the cake upside down anyway!)
- Remove cake from the oven and cool on a wire rack for just 20 minutes. Invert the slightly cooled cake onto a cake stand or serving plate. Some of the juices from the topping will seep over the sides- that's ok. You can slice and serve the cake warm, but the slices will be messy. I find it's best to cool the cake completely at room temperature before slicing and serving. Do not refrigerate the cake to speed up the cooling process because it could end up tasting overly dense.
- Cover leftover slices and store for up to 3 days in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer. Thaw at room temperature. I don't recommend freezing the cake as a whole because the topping arrangement doesn't thaw very nicely. See make ahead instructions below.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
- Melt the butter. Brush a little bit of the butter on the inside of a 9-inch cake pan.
- Mix 5 tablespoons of the butter with the dark brown sugar and 1/4 cup of the pineapple juice. Place this mixture in the bottom of the cake pan. Arrange the pineapple rings on the brown sugar mixture in a decorative pattern (be creative). Set pan aside.
- Stir together the flour, salt, white sugar, and baking powder.
- Separate the eggs. Beat the whites until stiff but not dry.
- Beat two of the egg yolks until lemony yellow. Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup pineapple juice, vanilla, and remaining melted butter. Add this mixture to the flour mixture. Gently fold in the egg whites. Pour batter over the top of the brown sugar and pineapple rings.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cake springs back when lightly touched with a finger, about 30 minutes. Let cake cool in pan for 10 minutes then cover pan tightly with a serving dish and invert so that the pineapple side is up.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Put the chopped pineapple in a baking dish, cover with foil and roast in the oven until soft and lightly golden brown. Leave the oven at 350 degrees F.
- Put the sugar, vanilla bean and 1/2 cup of water in a medium saucepan and cook over high heat until it turns a light caramel. Add the chopped pineapple, cream, salt and arbol and cook until slightly reduced. Let cool for about 5 minutes before adding it to a blender. Remove the vanilla bean, then carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth. Strain through a medium mesh strainer into a bowl. Return the mixture to the saucepan and reduce it to a sauce consistency. Pour the caramel into a seasoned 10-inch cast iron pan and let cool slightly. Arrange the pineapple slices on top of the caramel and set aside.
- Cream the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment until light and fluffy, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl once. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating until each is incorporated.
- Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a bowl until combined. Whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, rum, vanilla extract and vanilla seeds in a measuring cup. Alternate the dry and wet ingredients starting and ending with the flour and mix until just combined, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl. Pour the batter over the pineapple in the cast iron pan and bake until the top is lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool on a baking rack for 10 minutes, then invert onto a large platter. Let cool for 30 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the cake batter: Combine the flour, baking powder, salt, granulated sugar, 1/2 stick butter, the shortening, milk, eggs, vanilla and 2 tablespoons pineapple juice in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until well combined. (There will still be a few small lumps in the batter.) Set aside.
- Melt the remaining 1/2 stick butter in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat; swirl to thoroughly coat the skillet. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter, making sure it's evenly distributed-you want the entire surface of the butter to be covered in brown sugar. Do not stir. As soon as the sugar dissolves, remove from the heat and layer the pineapple slices over the top. If desired, place maraschino cherries in the centers of the pineapple slices.
- Pour the batter evenly over the pineapple slices and gently spread to even out the top. Bake the cake 30 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Immediately run a knife around the edge of the cake, then put a plate upside down on top of the skillet. Carefully invert the skillet so the cake is turned onto the plate. It should come out pretty easily; if bits of cake stick to the skillet, use a small knife to patch it together. Let cool slightly before cutting into wedges. It's best served warm.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE FROM SCRATCH
This is an old-fashioned upside-down cake recipe from my German grandmother from scratch. She used this same cake batter for many different fruits as an alternative to pineapple. She often used fresh Italian prunes or pitted fresh cherries. My grandparents owned a bakery and this cake was very popular in the 1950s and 1960s. Serve warm or at room temperature with whipped cream.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
In this country, ingestion of the pineapple upside-down cake has often been used as proof of citizenship - unless you had some as a child, you simply weren't an American. I've had plenty of bad ones -- usually because the dough is too heavy or dry, and sometimes the overly shrill sweetness makes you want to quit living, at least for the length of time you are eating it. But properly prepared, this guilty pleasure is most welcomely retro, and in the recipe here, the cake, while not exactly dietetic, is not life-threatening either.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet; stir in brown sugar.
- Stir in rum; let mixture bubble.
- Arrange fruit in mixture and intersperse pecans. Pineapples may overlap; place semicircles along sides of skillet; place cherries in middle of ring. Berries should be evenly distributed - their mirror image will be what the top of the cake looks like.
- For the batter, mix flour, baking powder, cornmeal and salt in a bowl.
- Cream butter at slow speed in an electric mixer and gradually add 1 cup of sugar. Beat until fluffy.
- Add egg yolks and vanilla.
- Add half the dry mixture, beating, then half the liquid (sour cream, Coco Lòpez or milk). When incorporated, add the remaining dry ingredients and then the remaining liquid. Add rosemary and pecan pieces (both optional).
- In another bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form, then add 2 tablespoons sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.
- Fold half of the whites into mixture, then fold in the rest. Spread the batter evenly over the fruit.
- Bake 45 to 50 minutes, until a knife inserted - into the dough only - comes out clean.
- Let the cake sit for a minute, then run a knife around the edge and invert a serving dish on top. Turn the skillet and serving dish over, gently rap the bottom of the skillet. Serve.

Steps:
- Melt margarine in a large skillet over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cook until melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Lay pineapple slices in the sauce and cook until browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Lower heat and carefully add rum; simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool while you prepare the cake.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Grease a 3-inch deep, 9- or 10-inch round baking pan.
- Mix flour and baking powder together in a bowl. Beat eggs, orange juice, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a second bowl.
- Cream margarine and sugar in a third bowl until light and creamy and sugar granules are no longer evident. Gradually add egg mixture while continuing to blend. Add drained pineapple and up to 2 tablespoons reserved juice, if needed. Fold in flour mixture until thoroughly combined.
- Pour cooled sauce into the bottom of the prepared pan, arranging the pineapple slices so they're flat on the bottom. Pour cake batter over the sauce, making sure there is about 1 inch at the top of the pan so the cake has room to rise.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Invert onto a serving platter and garnish with a cherry in the center of each pineapple slice.

CHEF JOHN'S PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE
This iconic American dessert looks like a simple, rustic fruit cobbler when it comes out of the oven, all browned and bubbling, but a few minutes later, when it's turned over and that gloriously caramelized surface is revealed, it becomes so much more.
