Pineapple Upside-Down Cake, King Arthur website
Made with fresh pineapple, makes a difference I think. I don’t know why there is a piece missing.
A perfect popover! A few were real stickers. Tasted good but pretty mangled even tho I slathered butter in the tins. Wondering if I might need a new popover tin.
I use the silver palate recipe but have the oven at 425 the first 5 min.
That’s the recipe I use but use all milk, no cream, 400° for 35 minutes. (I tried a lot of recipes and settled on this one) I use a blender, rest for 30 minutes.
Treat yourself to a USA Popover Pan. It makes a BIG difference. I rub soft butter inside, a little bit on bottom, into oven for 3 minutes before I pour in batter.
Did you pierce with a knife to release steam as soon as they came out?
(I love them with Bonne Maman Blackberry Preserves)
My popover pan says Nordic Ware on the bottom, and I use Ina Garten’s recipe. No sticking trouble so far. Here’s an old pic
When I first experimented, I used a new Nordicware pan that I’d bought and never used. Despite buttering well and using Baker’s spray, a few stuck. My pan looked different than this, darker.
With USA pans all slide out easily with just buttering.
I gave my first pan to a friend who was just starting out.
nice even flat top. are you using a topped Pullman pan?
Frangipane, cake style, two drops of bitter almond added to the almond flour gave it a nice subtle background hint without overpowering the flavor. Blackberries were the choice today, along with a blackberry coulis. This is a fine textured cake with a thin crispy crust, it’s a mostly cobbled together recipe that I scale up/down.
Yum, looks wonderful! I think I know what it tastes like, but with a coarse texture, which a bakery here used to make.
I’m waiting for a bread pudding to cool a bit before I dive in. No ice cream, unfortunately, but I may have whipped cream.
Bread pud with whipped cream sounds pretty good to me!
I will likely cut one in half tomorrow for a crumb shot as we split one tonight which was plenty for us, tomorrows might get some fresh blackberries and a dollop of sour cream. Stay tuned
A day of procrasti-baking and cooking today. I’m getting ready to host my sisters and niece next weekend. We’ll have weekend breakfasts and snacks here, other meals out. IIn addition to the baking, I also prepped components for egg bake, which I’ll assemble & bake Friday. So I successfully avoided vacuuming (until tomorrow).
Whole wheat cinnamon rolls, pictured pre-glaze. Now frozen for breakfast reheating.
Whole wheat buns, for sandwiches. Including today’s lunch.
Oatmeal cookies, packaged and frozen to send home with them Sunday.
How do you prep the egg bake ahead of time, please?
I cook sausage (and freeze it), cube bread (and freeze) chop peppers & onions., slice mushrooms, freeze all. Saves about 30 minutes for day-of assembly / final bake work. I will bake Friday AM, then refrigerate and we’ll reheat portions Sat/Sun. Original recipe suggested fully assembling and letting the egg mixture rest overnight, then bake next day. I posted my recipe here on HO last year.
Yup, it was pretty good, especially since it included raisins plumped up in rum.
Yum! Love the raisins!
Difficult to imagine anything I’d love more than to throw one of these. I just might do it.

Post a diary!
Thanks! No, just an overlong bread pan.
My popover pan is pretty old and was very good until it wasn’t. I think its time for a new one and I also like the USA pans. When done I poke them with a chopstick and leave in oven 2-3 min more.
