2/3 c light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 c splenda

1 can(s) pineapple chunk

Tips:

Use ripe pineapple for the best flavor. Fresh or canned pineapple can be used.
If using fresh pineapple, be sure to core and slice it thinly.
Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to cook the pancakes. This will help to prevent them from burning.
Be careful not to overcook the pancakes. They should be cooked through but still fluffy.
Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Pineapple upside-down pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a stack of fluffy pancakes that are bursting with pineapple flavor. Serve them with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
