For some reason, I always thought that making a pineapple upside-down cake was hard, but this proved me wrong! Not only did it turn out beautifully, it tasted like a homemade cake. Thank you for proving me wrong!

Use half the butter and half the brown sugar. Add as much pineapple as possible. Excellent recipe.

This was a great recipe. I only did a few things differently. I didn't have a cast iron pan to make this in so I also used a 9x13 glass pan. I melted the butter and then added the brown sugar into the butter which created a paste. While the brown sugar was melting, I layered the pan with the pineapple rings - I found I had to open an additional 8 oz can to get a couple more pineapple rings. I then smeared the pineapple/cherries with the paste from the brown sugar and butter. I added the pineapple juice to the cake mix versus the water also. It turned out great and my entire family raved about it. Thanks for a great and easy recipe.

I made the recipe exactly as directed and had negative results. The center was very uncooked so I had to bake it another 20 minutes to get it done, so the result was mush. On to another recipe!

OMG! This recipe is awesome. I took the advice of others and made it in a 9x13 pan. Used about half the amount of water with the other being pineapple juice. It was great!!!! And yes like the others as soon as it comes out of the oven flip it over and remove it from the pan. I waited to long and the center stuck a little. But in all a great recipe and i'll be making it again.

All in all this was good, nice flavor. I thought it was a little too wet. Plus, my cooking time took about 7 minutes longer.

Great Recipe. So simple yet using the cast iron makes all the difference in the world. It was so good my son requested it for his 10th birthday!

Followed recipe exactly (something I don't usually do!) Very good cake - maybe a tad sweet so next time I may cut down on the brown sugar a bit. I found that it baked longer then the cake mix called for and I was getting nervous because the edges looked over cooked and the inside looked under cooked. But it turned out great and the crispy sides were actually delicious!

Very easy to make. The middle sunk, but it was still a delicious cake! Maybe next time I will leave it in the oven longer.

Excellent, first time I ever made an upside down cake. Wanted something different and did I find the best, most moist,tasty and delicious cake here. It disappeared during the night and one sliver left over for breakfast. Thanks Anne, I will always make this cake.

Awesome! Used pineapple juice to replace some of the water and yellow cake mix. Baked in a 12" iron skillet for 50 minutes. Turned out perfect!

Made this in a 9x13 pan. Had no cherries. Everyone loved it!! Make sure you use butter with the brown sugar -- makes it extra scrumptious. Even hubby, who doesn't like sweets, said it was good. We will make again..

Made this in a 9x13 pan and it came out looking so impressive! My family said it not only looked great and it tasted a million times better! I used a vanilla cake mix since that's what I had on hand and it was awesome. Only think was the cake was about to break when i turned it upside down. If anyone can give me tips to avoid that next time i will appreciate it.

I make this recipe all the time for my girlfriend. It's so good. I like rum soaking the pineapples as well. Really makes it good when you substitute the water with pineapple juice in the cake recipe. I also use pineapple cake mix. Thank you for this recipe.

I have never eaten this before and liked it. Everyone that I served it to said it was the best Pineapple Upside Down Cake. Easy to make as I did in a regular deep saute pan and used a pineapple cake mix.
