This was my first time making pineapple upside-down cake, and it turned out great! The cake was moist and flavorful, and the pineapple topping was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.

This pineapple upside-down cake was a hit with my family! The cake was moist and fluffy, and the pineapple topping was sweet and caramelized. I will definitely be making this cake again.
