Ingredients:

You will need a greased round 10" (25cm) pie dish or casserole dish. You needn't be restricted to a round dish - this recipe can just as easily be made in a square or rectangular dish.

Method:

1. In a small pot, heat the butter and sugar. Pour this mixture into the base of the greased pie dish.
2. Arrange the pineapple rings and cherries in an attractive pattern on top of the butter mixture.
3. Beat the eggs until they are thick and pale. Add the sugar and orange rind. Continue to beat until the mixture is thick and a pale lemon color.
4. Add the milk and vanilla essence.
5. Sift together the flour and baking powder. Gently fold the flour into the batter.
6. Pour the batter carefully over the pinapples, being careful not to dislodge them. Bake for between 30 - 45 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the cake comes out clean.
7. Place a large flat plate over the pie dish. With a quick, confident movement, invert the pie dish and allow the cake to plop onto the plate. Leave the pie dish on top of the cake to allow the last of the syrup to drip onto the pineapple.
8. When you are ready to serve, remove the pie dish and serve the Pineapple Upside Down with thick cream.
