Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
1/3 cup milk at room temperature
1/4 cup pineapple juice
1/3 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs at room temperature
TOPPING :
1/4 cup butter melted
1/2 cup light brown sugar
20 ounces of canned pineapple in its own juices
1/4 cup maraschino cherries
Instructions
- Set the oven temperature to 180C/350F.
- First, get the topping ready. Pour melted butter into a 9-inch cake pan and sprinkle brown sugar all over the top. Place pineapple slices on top of the sugar and put a cherry in the middle of each one. If you have any pineapple left over, cut it up into small pieces and spread them around the pan.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl. Mix the oil, milk, pineapple juice, sour cream, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar together in a large bowl. Add the eggs and whisk until everything is mixed well.
- Mix the flour mixture into the wet ingredients gradually, stirring until the two mixtures are just combined.
- Pour the batter on top of the pineapple and spread it out. Bake in an oven that has already been heated for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool for 10 minutes before running a knife around the edges and turning it over onto a serving plate.
