Easy Puerto Rican Recipes - Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Do you remember pineapple upside down cakes? That's so 80s! But that's exactly when I was growing up and my mom taught me how to make a delicious "bizcocho al revés." This recipe brings a lot of great memories of being in the kitchen with my mom and baking together. Here, we teach you how to make it from scratch so you don't have to rely on a cake mix.

Honestly, this is one of my favorite desserts! But, I’ve never made the cake mix from scratch or added the sour cream for extra moisture. Looking forward to doing that. Thanks!

[@JeffandJosPuertoRicanKitchen]

Yes!!! Let me know how it goes for you!!

Do this bums me out totally my husband's diabetic and that's way too much sugar while I'm going to see if I can tweak the recipe and do it with some Splenda but I don't think they make Splenda brown sugar man thanks anyways Joe it's beautiful and looks very appetizing just too much sugar overload for us good looking out though

[@JeffandJosPuertoRicanKitchen]

Hi Lisa, Definitely not the recipe to share with your husband as is. Truvia has a brown sugar blend (www.target.com/p/truvia-brown-sugar-blend-bag-18oz/-/A-53223582?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&fndsrc=tgtao&DFA=71700000012732781&CPNG=PLA_Grocery%2BShopping_Local&adgroup=SC_Grocery&LID=700000001170770pgs&LNM=PRODUCT_GROUP&network=g&device=c&location=9011480&targetid=pla-508965787366&ds_rl=1246978&ds_rl=1248099&gclid=Cj0KCQiAv6yCBhCLARIsABqJTjZetQD4T1g00mUuC2EvSD4L2A6PMLW1nTOTgG6fhfzljnmSrFOfqHMaAhmiEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds) that you can give it a try. I would also recommend you use either fresh pineapple or a low sugar can and omit the cherries. Try reducing the sugar in the cake mix to 1/2 cup or substitute with splenda. Let me know how it goes!

[@leamacleod5903]

They do make splenda in brown sugar. The thing is you cant mix brown and the white sugar.

This not a typical Puerto Rican dish. It's American.

[@JeffandJosPuertoRicanKitchen]

Hi Mia! I am sure that it made it to Puerto Rico as part of the American influences but it has surely been adopted in Puerto Rico as a go to cake to bake at home.
