Pineapple Mango Upside Down Cake Recipes

PINEAPPLE MANGO UPSIDE DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Directions.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and sugar a 9 by 2-inch round baking pan or 6 ramekins (4-inch diameter).
• Melt 1/2 stick butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Heat until butter begins to turn brown. Remove pan from heat, add vinegar and brown sugar, and mix well. (A sauce whisk is a good tool to use here.) Return to heat to melt sugar, if necessary.
• Pour a little of the brown sugar sauce in the bottom of the ramekins or baking pan. Cut each pineapple ring into pieces, maintaining the shape of the ring (see Chef's Note). Add 1 pineapple ring to each ramekin or line the bottom of the large pan with pineapple. Add mango around the pineapple.
• Drizzle pineapple with remaining brown sugar sauce and sprinkle with chopped nuts.
• Make the batter:.
• In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• Put 1 stick of softened butter in the bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium to high speed with the paddle attachment until light and fluffy. Add 1/2 cup superfine sugar and beat very well, until mixture is white and very light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Alternately mix 1/3 cup milk, then 1/3 of flour mixture into butter-egg mixture in 3 portions. Do not overmix.
• In another bowl, beat egg whites with clean beaters or a balloon whisk. When whites begin to foam, add remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and beat until they hold soft peaks. Scrape 1/2 the whites into batter and mix gently until blended. Fold in remaining whites carefully, until just blended.
• Divide batter among ramekins or pour into baking pan. (If using ramekins, place them on a baking sheet.) Place cake in preheated oven. Bake until a tester inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 20 to 30 minutes for individual cakes or about 50 minutes for the large cake. Remove from oven and let cool about 10 minutes in the pan. Run a knife around the edges to loosen the cake(s) and invert onto deep dessert plates or a deep platter (otherwise, the sweet syrup may overflow the plate.

MANGO-PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 9-inch cake pan, and line with parchment or wax paper.
• To make topping, in a small saucepan, melt butter with brown sugar. Stir until smooth, and pour into cake pan; allow to cool slightly. Sprinkle mango and pineapple over, and set aside.
• To make cake, in bowl of electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat butter until light, about 3 minutes. Add brown and granulated sugars, and beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, stopping and scraping down sides of bowl after each addition. Beat in sour cream and vanilla.
• Sift together flour, cornmeal, cinnamon, ginger, baking powder and salt. On low speed, mix flour mixture into batter in three batches; gently fold in mango and pineapple. Pour batter into the cake pan. Bake until top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Invert onto a platter to serve.

PINEAPPLE-MANGO UPSIDE-DOWN CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-by-8-inch cake pan, line it with parchment paper, and butter parchment. Using a 3-inch cookie cutter, cut out rounds from centers of four of the pineapple slices. Using a 1 1/2-inch cookie cutter, cut out the centers of each of the four rounds, and discard; set rings aside. Finely chop enough of the remaining pineapple to yield 1 cup (reserve remainder for another use). Place chopped fruit in a fine sieve set over a bowl to drain.
• Cut the mango lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Using the 1 1/2-inch cookie cutter, cut out four rounds from mango slices; set aside. Finely chop enough of the remaining mango to yield 1/2 cup; add to the pineapple in the sieve.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat 2 tablespoons butter with the brown sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a small offset spatula, evenly spread butter mixture in the bottom of the prepared pan; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder; set aside. Place a reserved pineapple ring in each corner of the prepared pan. Place a reserved mango round in the center of each ring.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat remaining stick of butter with granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition; scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla. With the mixer on lowest speed, add flour mixture in two parts, alternating with sour cream and beginning and ending with flour.
• Transfer the chopped pineapple-mango mixture to cake pan; discard juice. Using a small offset spatula, carefully spread fruit in an even layer on top of cut-out fruit, making sure to fill all the empty spaces, including any gaps in the corners. Using the offset spatula, spread batter evenly over fruit.
• Bake, rotating pan halfway through, until cake is golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool 30 minutes. Invert onto a cake plate; peel off the parchment paper. Serve cake slightly warm or at room temperature.
