Strawberry Upside Down Cake Ingredients:
- 2 Tablespoons butter (for the topping)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup fresh ripe sliced strawberries
- 2/3 cup white sugar
- 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 Teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 cup butter for the cake batter(room temperature)
- 2/3 cup milk, room temperature
- 1 egg, room temperature
- 1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Strawberry Upside Down Cake Recipe: The Initial Steps
You are going to need a 9-inch round baking pan to make the cake. First, you make the brown sugar and butter topping that goes down into the pan first. To do this, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the pan. You can do this by placing the 9-inch pan on your stove burner with the butter in the pan. Turn the burner to low and heat just long enough for the butter to melt.
Then, take the pan off the stove and add 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the pan with the butter and mix the two together. After that, spread the topping you made evenly over the bottom of the pan and place your sliced strawberries on top of the topping. Finally, set the pan aside, we’re going to make the cake batter.
Strawberry Upside Down Cake Recipe: Make The Cake Batter
First, place the flour, white sugar, and baking powder together in a large bowl. Stir or whisk the ingredients together. Next, add the milk, butter, egg, and vanilla to the bowl. Beat the ingredients together with an electric mixer until the batter is smooth.
Next, get the cake batter into the pan without moving the fruit on the bottom of the pan. You can do this one of two ways. The first way is to slowly pour the batter over the fruit and spread it out evenly after you poured it. The second way is to use a large kitchen spoon and dollop the batter into the pan and smooth it out over the fruit.
Baking the Strawberry Upside Down Cake
Place the cake into a 350 degree preheated oven and bake for 30 – 35 minutes. Check the cake with a toothpick inserted in the center to see if it comes out clean to make sure the cake is baked through. Remove the cake from the oven to a wire rack to cool for five or ten minutes. After you cool it for 5 or 10 minutes place a serving plate over the top of the pan. Flip the cake over onto the plate and remove the pan. Cool down the cake completely before you cut it and serve it.
Strawberry Upside Down Cake is moist, tender, and delicious. The fresh sliced strawberries laying on a bed of butter and brown sugar is delightful. Put everything from this strawberry upside down cake recipe together and you’ve got one amazing 9-inch cake. I love that’s it’s big enough for two people without having a ton of cake leftover but can still be served for dessert for at least four or five people to enjoy. Top this little gem with whipped cream if you like and watch the smiles appear. Strawberry Upside Down Cake, it’s what’s for dessert and it’s delicious, ENJOY!
