I served this with the infamous MahiMahi Hawaiian dinner. The
macadamia nuts take it up a level. It's just as easy as a mix and I am
no great shakes as a baker. You could use a box of banana muffin mix
if you're really in a hurry!
BANANA-PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN CAKE
3/8 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 mashed banana
1 cup crushed pineapple
1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
Cream together butter and sugar. Gradually add beaten egg,
flour, baking powder and salt. Fold in mashed banana. Melt
butter and sprinkle brown sugar through it on bottom of pan, 9
inches square. Add well drained crushed
pineapple and chopped macadamia nuts. Pour batter over this
mixture and bake in pre-heated oven of 350 degrees for 20-30
minutes. Let cool a few minutes and then invert on a platter or plate.
Serves 8-10.
