Preparation Instructions:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1: Prepare the Topping<\/strong><br>Begin by preheating your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Melt 1\/4 cup unsalted butter over low heat in a saucepan. Add 1\/2 cup light brown sugar and stir until combined. Pour this mixture evenly into the base of a 9-inch round cake pan. Arrange the pineapple slices over the sugar mixture and place a cherry in the center of each pineapple ring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients<\/strong><br>In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 and 1\/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1\/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1\/4 teaspoon salt. This blend of dry ingredients is crucial for a successful gluten free pineapple cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3: Cream Butter and Sugar<\/strong><br>In a large mixing bowl, cream 1\/2 cup softened unsalted butter with 3\/4 cup granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. This step is important to incorporate air, resulting in a tender upside down cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4: Add Eggs and Vanilla<\/strong><br>Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mixing well ensures a uniform distribution of flavors in the gluten free pineapple upside down cake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients<\/strong><br>Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, alternating with the pineapple juice and buttermilk. Start and end with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 6: Pour and Bake<\/strong><br>Pour the batter over the arranged pineapple slices in the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 7: Cool and Invert<\/strong><br>Allow the cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 20 minutes. Run a knife around the edges to loosen, then place a serving platter over the pan and carefully invert the cake onto the platter. Tap the bottom of the cake pan to release the cake smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-cooking-time-and-servings\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Cooking_Time_and_Servings\"><\/span>3.
