This Pineapple Upside-Down Cake is a much loved vintage dessert turned vegan. It‘s dense and moist, tender and sweet, and best of all ... so easy to prepare.
– 2 tbsp of flaxseed meal– 6 tbsp of warm water– 1 tbsp of vegan butter, melted– 2 tbsp of brown sugar– 20 oz of pineapple slices– 13 maraschino cherries– 1 ½ C of all-purpose flour– ½ C of granulated sugar– 1 1/2 tsp of baking powder– ⅓ C of canola oil– 2 tsp of vanilla extract– ¼ tsp of salt– 1 C of plant-based milk
Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the prepared pan and lay the pineapple slices on top. There should be six in the outer circle and one in the middle. You can also cut the remaining slices in half and add them to the sides of the pie pan. Add the maraschino cherries in the holes of the pineapples (see photo for a visual).
In a large bowl, add the flour, sugar, baking powder, canola oil, vanilla extract, salt, plant-based milk, and flaxseed meal mixture, and whisk it together until it’s well-combined.
