its_me_susan said:It calls for chopped nuts - what kind?
Also, if we make this at the start of the show - - will it be ok to let it stay in the pan cooling, until I am done. Or will that make it stick?
Thanks in advance for your help!

To make a quick pineapple upside down cake, you can use a boxed yellow cake mix and canned sliced pineapple. Follow the instructions on the cake mix box and pour the batter over the pineapple slices in a prepared pan. Bake according to the package instructions and flip the cake over onto a serving platter while it's still warm.
Yes, you can use fresh pineapple for this cake. However, make sure to slice the pineapple thinly and evenly so it cooks through in the short baking time. You can also lightly cook the pineapple slices in a pan with butter and brown sugar before arranging them in the cake pan.
To prevent the pineapple slices from sticking to the pan, make sure to generously butter the pan before arranging the pineapple slices. You can also sprinkle some brown sugar on the bottom of the pan before adding the pineapple to create a caramelized coating.
Yes, you can add other fruits or toppings to the cake such as cherries, sliced apples, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon. Just make sure to arrange them on top of the pineapple slices before pouring the cake batter over them.
The cake can be served warm or at room temperature. If you prefer a warm cake, you can serve it immediately after flipping it over onto a serving platter. If you prefer a room temperature cake, let it cool for at least 15-20 minutes before serving.
