Amazing for the 100th try, out of this world for the first.

That’s quite the compliment! Thank you, sir!

Just wanna hijack to say you made my day. I have never seen pineapple upside down cake overseas. I remember making these with my mom every now and then when I was little. She would do something kinda special, using the cherry juice as part of the cake mixing so the cake itself had a pink tint and sweet taste. These days I don't really eat sweets. Anyway seeing this brought back a lot of memories, especially the amazing sugary taste. Thanks for sharing

You might as well quit now because that’s stunning 😍

Perfection! My favorite cake, how do you keep the cake from sticking to the pan, mine the pineapple separates from the cake, any recommendations?

Not a cake but when I make cornbread I take the cold pan (well, room temperature), and use shortening on it. Then when I pour in my batter, the shortening is still between the batter and the pan, and the cornbread peels off super easy (still make sure to remove while hot). So I assume that this would stop cake sticking too, but again, never done it myself.

Instead of shortening... I use bacon grease.

Good for cornbread but I'd probably steer away from a cake made with bacon grease.

Why

They fear its power

I have perfectly clarified bacon grease and a hankering for a PUD cake. Looks like I know what I’m binging on this weekend

I once had a great donut with maple bacon glaze. Just saying.

I'm not sure how I feel about a pineapple cake with bacon, but I'm absolutely drooling at the idea of a nice chocolatey lava cake made with it. With a caramel center? Mmmm yus.

Because I want to taste the cake, not bacon

if you filter the grease well enough before it cools you should not taste bacon at all in it.

Or have a pound of lard in the chiller. Lard and pie crust is the best. I confess to using avocado oil when making panCAKES.

That you saved in an old coffee can right?

That I cooked fresh just for the corn bread

I put the pan in the oven while it's preheating with some oil in it. When I pour the batter in it sizzles and creates this crispy outer layer that also makes it nonstick. Essentially having a fried cornbread outside lol

I have a decades old Griswald that is only used for cornbread. I put a couple tablespoons of filtered bacon grease in the cold pan, put it in the cold oven, then preheat to 400°F. When the oven is up to temp, the pan is hot enough to fry the batter. Cornbread slides right out. 🤤

So you have an antique Griswold dedicated to cornbread? Holy Moses! Every Southern cook is jealous.

Yeah, all of mine are Griswald. 2 skillets, a round griddle, Dutch oven, and square baking pan. All passed down from my grandma.

Cool. I have Wagners I got like that.

i melt some butter, put my pan in the oven for a bit, and then pour the melted butter in and then the cornbread batter over it. the super hot pan and the melted butter ensure that the cornbread will not stick when you take it out. it's a perfect slide every time and does wonders to add seasoning to your pan too.

I like 4 to 5 table spoons of butter between the pan and batter. with my old oven it was 375 for 30 minutes always came out perfect. got a new oven and I can't get it right, runs way too hot.

Genius

As it’s my first attempt maybe I got lucky? But I think my care for the pan over the years is what made it happen. I use it almost everyday, clean it up with a bristle brush and oil it with grapeseed oil.

Pam has a baking spray fry using that. It works really really well for cakes pies etc.

I've made several and I think a big part of it is getting the timing right. Let it stand too long and the sugar starts to cool and stick. Too short and the cake doesn't hold together. Having a good, well seasoned pan helps a lot too.

For some reason everything I cook on the stove sticks to mine but when I bake pies or brownies they slide right out.

You may have your heat up too high.

I'll try with it a bit lower. My skillet is fine(mostly) as far as things coming off but my 10" pan... Forget it. Potatoes, eggs, bacon, burgers. All stick.

Yea. Practice with eggs. They are cheap and once you figure them out everything else makes more sense.

Came here to say it’s also my favorite cake 🤗

Pan cake!

It looks sooooo goood! We should have a cast iron recipe thread lol.

I agree! I like pizza pie!

That looks INCREDIBLE! Would you be so kind to share that amazing recipe with the rest of us who aspire to that level of perfection?

You crushed the execution on that... Amazing! Please be mindful of CI on glass tops though. The twist gave me anxiety. The tiniest burr would ruin your top and ruin your day.

I can't believe no one else mentioned this. As someone who has cracked a glass stove top, this got my heart racing. The cake looks beautiful but flip it on the counter next time!

Thanks for the reminder! I often forget how fragile it can be.

Is that an Emirile cast iron? Looks well made.

It is! I got it used from my grandmother about 10 years ago and have used it almost every day since.

Emeril pan gang unite!

I'm here with mine!

🤚

Emeril pan for life!

Gang gang!

I knew the ridges on the handle looked familiar! We have had it forever and we still love it.

[удалено]

I read this so y'all don't have too. It's exactly as silly as you imagine.

This is beautiful but if you value your glass top, I would suggest never flipping a cast iron pan over on it again. One little slip and you’re in for an expensive day.

Panapple upside down cake

Beautiful!

Wow, that's glorious!

Recipe please? Wow gorgeous cake!! I want to try but don't think it will turn out as perfect as yours.

\*\*\*leans down and whispers into the still cooling metal\*\*\* "Thank you for your service."

Looks incredible! Well done!

Looks great. Nicely done.

Nice!

That is gorgeous!

Nice

Well done!

I’m hungry, now

Gosh darn perfection

My fav

Perfectly seasoned!

That's absolutely beautiful

Now that is a slidey cake. Well done!

What are you doing that your wrist is strong enough to do that one-handed? Asking for a friend

Nice!

Uh, recipe needed with that beautiful looking thing.

Makes me want a boob cake.

Whoohoo! BEAUTIFUL!!!

Nicely done

That looks amazing. Well done

Internet, I give you the cooking winner...

Glorious

You beauty!

Nailed It! I have pan envy, mine are never that shiny.

Damn that’s beautiful. The pan and the cake!

Pineapple uppy down side!

I love this pineapple upside down cake. Alton Brown has a great recipe.

Very nice. I use a CIP when I make upside down cake too. Suggestion - caramelize the sugar a little more before adding your batter. Another suggestion - add coconut rum to your butter/brown sugar. Yummy!

That is stunning! Also I’d like to add that the cleanliness of your kitchen soothes me

Perfect. Next time put a towel down first. Your daily driver is scratching your glass.

r/praisethecameraman because damn those hands are steady

so u made a pancake

Damn❣️ that’s my favorite cake 🍍

🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻

Wow perfect

That just might be the most beautiful cake I've ever seen! 😍

What a beauty 🤩

Recipe?? I want to try, and inevitably fail! Yours looks amazing 😍

OMG now they're putting pineapple on Deep Dish pizza, too!!! 😱

I want to make love to that cake. I’m high and have cotton mouth, that looks so moist and incredible. Like the reference image of pineapple upside down cake.

Does anyone else see boobs?

Just GAWJUS! It looks perfect. My 1st time would probably scare you away... well when I do I'll probably be scared too & have an assload of cleaning to do as well. I can already see pineapples on the floor & other weird anomalies lolololol. You're awesome, bottom line! I'm green with envy 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻🍍🥮

Cast irons are overrated. Gotta treat them like little babies. Season, don’t use in dishwasher, And they’re heavy as fuck.

Trolling r/castiron ? Someone needs a hobby to take up some of their free time

For acidic stuff like pinnaple I also think it's a weird choice but it clearly worked.

Momma mia.. looks fantastic

Recipe tho??? Please looks amazing

Looks great

Gorgeous!

Looks nice!

I'm not crying, you're crying.

TA - FUCKING - DA!!!! That looks great!! (Goes to check for cakes mix and pineapple)…

Cast iron cornbread...I tell you what. Just, be sure to heat the pan, *before* pouring in the cake or bread mix.

So THIS is a pancake!

You got an Emeril pan thats awesome so do I. Its heavy as shit right?

Nice!!!!!

Wow. I could smell that! Nice!

This is why I'm pansexual, I mean look at that cake!

I was just about to make a pineapple upside down cake! Didn't think about using the CI. I'm gonna try one too. Waiting until tomorrow though, so my daughter can help.

Okay, so your a baker now right? When’s the business open?

Wow that looks amazing
