Pineapple Upside Down Cake


Ingredients:
3 TB firmly packe Brown Sugar
25g Butter Melted
Can of pineapple rings - reserve a 1/3C of the pineapple juice
100g Butter Softened
1/2 C Caster Sugar
2 Eggs
Finely grated zest of 1 Lemon
2 tsp Coconut Essence - not essential, I've made it without and it tastes fine
1C of Self Raising Flour - add a bit of baking powder if you don't have any self raising

Heat oven, grease/line cake tin. Sprinkle brown sugar and melted butter over base
Drain pineapples and reserve 1/3C of juice. Then arrange on the base over the brown sugar and melted butter.
Place the second measure of butter and caster sugar in a bowl and beat until pale and creamy.
Beat in Eggs, one at a time. Stir in Lemon Zest and Coconut Essence, then fold in sift flour alternately with the reserve pineapple juice.

Spoon mixture of pineapples, then smooth the surface.

Bake 35-40mins or a skewer comes out clean.

Note: Double the mixture so you have a thicker cake.
