Best 4 Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes Recipes

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Pat the pineapple rings dry with a paper towel, then transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
• Heat a large nonstick pan or cast-iron griddle over medium-low heat. Add the butter.
• While the butter is melting, sprinkle one side of the pineapple rings with the brown sugar. Place the pineapple rings sugared-side down in to the pan, leaving enough space around them to allow for the pancake batter to be poured over top. Cook until the sugar caramelizes and the pineapples turn light brown, about 5 minutes.
• Place a maraschino cherry into the center of each pineapple ring. Carefully pour about 1/2 cup of pancake batter over each pineapple ring to make 4 pancakes. Cook until the batter starts to bubble and take on a dull look, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook on the other side for about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and serve.
