We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray your muffin tins with non-stick cooking spray.

  • Step 2: In a mixing bowl, add eggs, white sugar, and pineapple juice. Beat for 2 minutes. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add to the wet ingredients and mix for 2 more minutes.

  • Step 3: In a small sauce pan, melt the butter and add the brown sugar. Stir on low heat for one minute.

  • Step 4: Cut the pineapple chunks in half and place 5 around the bottom of the muffin tins in a circle. Place cherry half in the middle of each.

  • Step 5: Spoon over a layer of the warm brown sugar mixture. Pour cake mixture over to fill muffin tin 3/4 of the way full.

  • Step 6: Bake regular cakes for 20 minutes. (You can use pineapple rings and a jumbo muffin pan. Bake those for 25 minutes.)

  • Step 7: Let sit for 3 minutes and then using a knife, go around each cake and then use a cookie sheet to invert the little cakes. Serve warm or cool. Delicious!
