Pina Colada Cake Hybrid Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Place butter in 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish; place in oven until butter is melted.
• Remove baking dish from oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over melted butter. Sprinkle coconut over brown sugar. Arrange pineapple slices over coconut, pressing lightly to set each one in place.
• In large bowl, place cake mix, reserved 2 tablespoons pineapple juice, the coconut milk, oil and eggs. Stir vigorously about 2 minutes or until well combined and batter is smooth. Let stand 2 minutes; stir again. Pour batter into pan, spreading evenly.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Immediately run knife around sides of baking dish to loosen cake. Place cookie sheet upside down over baking dish. Turn cookie sheet and baking dish over; leave baking dish over cake 5 minutes to let brown sugar mixture drizzle down onto cake. Remove baking dish; cool 30 minutes before serving. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat a 9x13-inch glass baking pan over low heat on the stove. Add 1 stick butter and heat until melted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cover with brown sugar, mashing it into the butter using a fork. Let cool and refrigerate baking pan until butter hardens, about 15 minutes.
• Remove baking pan from the refrigerator and cover brown sugar mixture with an even layer of crushed pineapple.
• Blend cake mix, 1 cup reserved pineapple juice, eggs, and 1/3 cup melted butter together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until moistened. Beat on low speed for 2 additional minutes and allow batter to thicken, about 3 minutes. Add honey and coconut.
• Pour batter over the crushed pineapple in the baking pan, smoothing to an even layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Serve while still warm. Cut cake and flip over onto plates, with brown sugar and pineapple on top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 10 mini cake molds.
• Drain pineapple rings, reserving 1/4 cup juice.
• Combine flour and baking powder in a small bowl.
• Combine 3/4 cup melted butter and white sugar in a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended, about 3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time. Mix in reserved 1/4 cup pineapple juice, 1/2 cup coconut cream, milk, 1 tablespoon coconut extract, and vanilla extract. Add flour mixture gradually, mixing until batter is smooth.
• Mix brown sugar and 1/3 cup melted butter together in a bowl until smooth. Spoon into the bottom of the cake molds. Place 1 pineapple ring in each mold. Place 1 maraschino cherry in the center of each ring.
• Divide batter among cake molds using an ice cream scoop.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 22 minutes. Cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes. Run a knife around the rims to loosen cakes; invert gently onto a plate.
• Pour heavy cream into a chilled metal bowl. Add cream of tartar. Beat with an electric mixer until almost holding peaks. Add confectioners' sugar gradually, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Fold in 1/4 pineapple juice, 3 tablespoons coconut cream, and 1 tablespoon coconut extract.
• Serve whipped cream alongside cakes.

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees (f).
• Prepare cake mix according to package directions, using eggs, water, and oil.
• Add grated coconut being careful not to overmix; batter should have some texture.
• Set batter aside.
• Grease 9 x 13 inch pan with cooking spray.
• Arrange pineapple slices in bottom of pan.
• Further decorate with cherries in center of and inbetween each pineapple ring.
• You will not need all cherries.
• Pour batter into cake pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees (f) for 30-35 minutes or until cakes tests done by inserting a toothpick into center.
• Serve warm or cold.
• I do not frost this cake since I serve it upside down and it is rich enough without frosting.
• It looks classy but is so easy.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the bottom shelf of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. If using a muffin pan that's not nonstick, spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Stir together the brown sugar, rum and 3 tablespoons of the coconut oil in a small bowl. Pour about 1 tablespoon into each cup of a 6-cup nonstick jumbo muffin pan.
• Place 1 pineapple ring in each muffin cup, then put 1 cherry in the center of each pineapple ring.
• Finely mince the remaining 2 pineapple rings until the texture resembles crushed pineapple; transfer to a large bowl. Add the lime juice, coconut milk and granulated sugar and the remaining 4 tablespoons coconut oil. Whisk to combine. Add the flour mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined.
• Divide the batter among the muffin cups (about a heaping 1/4 cup in each). Use the back of a small spoon to smooth the tops. Transfer the muffin pan to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the center springs back when you lightly press the top a cake, about 20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.
• Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes. Set a wire rack inside another rimmed baking sheet and spray the rack with nonstick cooking spray. Run a small offset spatula around the edge of each cake, then carefully invert the cakes onto the prepared rack. Let cool for 20 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, remove the chilled heavy coconut cream from the refrigerator. Scoop the solid coconut cream from the top of the can (about 1 cup), leaving behind the coconut water and reserving it. Whip the coconut cream with a handheld mixer on high speed in a large bowl until smooth, creamy and very soft peaks form. If the cream is too thick, whip in 1 teaspoon of the reserved coconut water at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Add the lime zest and confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed until just combined.
• Top the cakes with large dollops of the whipped coconut cream. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray 2 9 inch round cake pans with non-stick cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cup of melted butter into each pan. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of brown sugar in each pan.
• 2. Top each with half of the pineapple, cherries, and nuts.
• 3. Combine cake mix, eggs, and a can of coconut milk. Mix until well blended. Pour batter evenly over both prepared pans.
• 4. Bake 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
• 5. Cool cake in pans for about 15 minutes. Invert cake onto a plate. Gently press coconut around sides and top.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Put 2 blobs of Coconut Oil on the bottom of your baking pan. Put in oven that is preheating for about a minute or less (just to melt it).
• Remove from oven. Sprinkle on brown sugar until Coconut oil is absorbed.
• Sprinkle on pecan halves & coconut flakes according to preference.
• Spread drained pineapple chunks over mixture, reserve a few chunks in the juice to add to cake batter later.
• Cake Batter:.
• Combine Carrot Cake mix, french vanilla pudding, and pineapple juice (use it to replace the amount of water recommended on the box. Higher altitudes may call for more juice than you have, make up the difference with water).
• Add Coconut oil according to amount recommended on box (high altitude climates need less).
• Put pecans in a bag and use a hard object to smash them into smaller pieces. Add to batter.
• Mix. Add 3 eggs. Mix some more.
• When done, pour over the mixture in your baking dish, pop in the oven for about 30-40 minutes, and viola! Done!
• Buen Provecho! :).
