I am not a fan of pineapple upside-down cake but I love the concept of it. When I saw this recipe I had to try it. It is great and easy to make. TOH may have the wrong picture on the website though. If the picture for the recipe has almonds on it-it is the wrong pic. They swapped the pictures for this recipe and spiced apple upside down cake.
