Cherry Upside-Down Cake
I love this tasty Cherry Upside-Down Cake because it gives me a reason to buy cherries from my local farmer’s market! If I plan to make this upside-down cherry cake, I always buy extra cherries so that I have some to snack on while I cook! I advise you to do this too!
As well as tasting really delicious, this cherry upside-down cake recipe is very easy to make! Start by softening the cherries in a saucepan with caramelized sugar and red wine. Make a batter by combining flour, butter, sugar, baking powder, eggs, salt and milk. Place the cherries in the bottom of a baking pan and top with the cake batter. Bake in the oven until golden brown on top. Leave to cool slightly before turning the cake out onto your favorite serving plate.
To make Cherry Upside-Down Cake, you will need the following ingredients:

I personally think the cake it way too sweet even for a cake, best way to change that for next time is to replace cane white sugar with brown and add a bit of lemon zest.
Can this be made with blueberries instead of cherries?
Heavenly cake me and my daughter gobbled it all up over coffee :)
Hubby loved this he even helped me make it which normally he avoids the kitchen like the plague so that was a plus haha.
Replaced 3 eggs for applesauce was perfection.
Yummy!! Baked it for my nieces birthday she really liked it.
I used the cherry filling recipe for this upside-down cake was great.
Smells so good, waiting for it to bake but super excited to try it out.
Replaced the normal milk for some almond and added a few chopped almonds to the cake batter, very good.
Sooo freaking good.
That's a LOT of sugar but it's good for sweettoothed people.
This was super good!! Loved this dessert a lot more than the bowl upside down cake, this has so much more flavor.
Needed a bit more butter like another half and it was good after that also recommend to smear the thing youre baking it in with some butter too so the cake doesn't stick to it.
Kinda hard to make mine was not as thick as the pictures and was actually slightly small not exactly sure why that is cause i did follow the instructions.
Why is there dry wine in this i don't get it..?
Tried making some vanilla frosting for this and ended up just using some powdered sugar, lemon and milk for the glaze lmao.
All you guys recipes are the best this was freaking delicious.
Jelena has the best stuff out there keep up the good work going to be checking out more of your dishes (- :
