pineapple and morgan’s spiced upside down cake

This is a brilliantly easy and extremely tasty tart tatin style cake, the combination of rum and pineapple is classic and reminiscent of a good cocktail. The sponge is very light, fluffy & moist and the little kick from the spiced rum really makes this dessert ‘worth’ eating!

A decadent end to any meal is a light and refreshing dessert and this was a perfect end to ours.
This summer dessert is great for big kids!
It’s very quick to do with very little work and a very rewarding payout at the end.
