A juicy, airy cake with a surprising twist: miso caramel! This upside-down pineapple cake is deliciously summery, light and a touch of umami thanks to that delicious caramel sauce. Made with fresh pineapple for an extra fresh taste, but it also works well with canned pineapple. A perfect dessert with a cup of coffee. And believe me: it's easier than it looks! Especially if you have such a niceIngenio panthat you can simply go from the heat to the oven and has a handy lid to store leftovers in — I love good stuff!

Preparation method

How do you make this?

1. Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to175°C(top and bottom heat).

2. Make the miso caramel

  • Melt the sugar in a dry pan over medium heat until caramelized. Do not stir, just swirl gently if necessary.
  • Once the sugar has completely melted, add the butter, miso and cream.
  • Stir well until a smooth caramel is formed.

Tip:Use an ovenproof pan as shown in theIngenio series: click off the handle and pop it into the oven!

3. Prepare the pineapple

  • Peel the pineapple and cut into slices of about 1 cm.
  • Remove the tough center with a cookie cutter.
  • Place 1 slice in the center of the pan on top of the caramel. Arrange half slices around and against the edge of the pan.
  • Push some almonds into the open pieces.

4. Make the batter

  • Beat the eggs with sugar, vanilla and salt.
  • Add yogurt, milk, lemon juice and zest, and melted butter. Mix well.
  • Sift in the flour and mix until smooth.
  • If desired, stir in the chopped pecans.

5. Bake the cake

  • Carefully pour the batter over the pineapple.
  • Bake for40 minutesat 175°C. Check with a skewer: it should come out dry.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes, then turn the cake out onto a plate. Tap the base gently to loosen it.
