Dairy and Gluten Free Pineapple Upside-down Cake

Another great recipe from the GoodFood free app. I had never made an upside-down cake before but it won't be the last. They are really easy to make and delicious. In fact, the only complaint I have about this cake is that there wasn't enough of it, everyone asked for seconds and my son asked me to make more.

Ingredients:

Topping

• 50g dairy free margarine
• 50g sugar

Cake

• 7 pineapple rings in syrup, drained and 2 tblsps syrup
• glace cherries
• 100g dairy free margarine
• 100g caster sugar
• 100g gluten free self-raising flour
• 1 tsp gluten free baking powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 eggs

Method:

Heat the oven to 180C. For the topping, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy. Spread over the base and a quarter of the way up the sides of a 21cm round cake tin. Arrange pineapple rings on top, then place cherries in the centres of the rings. Place the cake ingredients in a bowl along with 2 tbsp of the syrup and beat to a soft consistency. Spoon into the tin on top of the pineapple and smooth it out. Bake for 35 minutes. Leave to stand for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a plate.
