This is a unique spin on a traditional pineapple upside-down cake – smaller, upside-down cakes using biscuits!

Is your sweet tooth tingling? Are you excited about the prospect of delicious holiday desserts and buffet treats? I know this time of year can be packed with chocolates and peppermint-flavored EVERYTHING, but there’s one special recipe that has become my favorite over the last few years… and it’s not what you might think.

Mini Biscuit Pineapple Upside-Down Cake Recipe

A few years back, I found an old recipe for a pineapple upside-down cake that was in one of my grandmother’s recipe books. I whipped it up for my family and they were so impressed, I actually ended up making another one the following week, which disappeared just as quickly as the first.

The one must-have ingredient for pineapple upside-down cake is obviously pineapple, but it has to taste just right. It has to be the pineapple from my childhood and that can only be one — Dole. Their pineapple juice and canned pineapple products are your best bet for a deliciously moist and decadent cake that your whole family will be raving about for years to come.
