Pineapple Upside Down Cake

We wanted to capture the feeling of pineapple upside down cake à la mode, all inspired by Claire Saffitz’s recipe from her cookbook Dessert Person. Hunked through a sweet cream ice cream, the pineapple cake is a faithful take on Claire Saffitz’s recipe from her cookbook Dessert Person—all down to a rum butterscotch to recreate the cake’s signature glossy top. It mimics the dessert’s caramelized finish and provides a rich, brown ribbon that cues the gooey upside-down experience.

We’re beyond thrilled to collaborate with chef, recipe developer, and best-selling author, Claire Saffitz, to create two new flavors for this year’s Holiday Series. Claire has a gift for making even the most impressive desserts feel doable at home, and you may recognize her from her time at Bon Appétit, her YouTube series, or her two cookbooks: Dessert Person and What’s for Dessert. Trained in pastry at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, Claire has gained a loyal following of home bakers who want to learn, experiment, and of course, indulge. We love her thoughtful approach to baking and how elegant, yet accessible, her recipes are.
