I love nothing more than my grandmother’s handwritten recipe cards. You know, those recipes written on cardboard, or school notebooks, with tons of annotations in the margins? One day you stumble upon one in a drawer, and good old family memories start to flow into your mind… This pineapple upside down cake is one of these heartwarming recipes – certainly my grandpa’s favorite. So, are you up to it? This recipe is quite easy and I hope you’ll enjoy making it — and eating it — as much as I did. Treat yourself and your loved ones with a sweet moment for good memories!
