INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (8 ounce) can sliced pineapple
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted and divided
  • 4 maraschino cherries
  • 4 pecan halves

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten

DIRECTIONS

  1. Drain pineapple, reserving 1 tablespoon juice. Set pineapple aside. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and 2 tablespoons butter; stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour into an ungreased 6-in. round baking pan. Arrange pineapple slices in a single layer in pan; place cherries and pecans in center of pineapple slices.
