Pineapple Upside-Down Cake
A few months ago pineapples were on sale and my husband came home with six of them! He juiced three in anticipation of our son's birthday which left three waiting to be used.

I considered dehydrating but then decided to try making cake. One of my favorites, as a matter of fact… Pineapple Upside-Down Cake! The texture of this cake is very light, considering it uses coconut flour [affiliate link] and was really very delicious!
