Betty Crocker Quick & Easy Pear Upside Down Cake Recipe
An easy upside down pear cake made with Bisquick!
Servings: 10
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 large pear, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
- 1-1/2 cups Bisquick mix
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup milk or water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F degrees. In a 9-inch round cake pan, melt the butter in the oven. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the butter. Arrange the pear slices in a single layer on the sugar mixture.
- In a large bowl, beat the Bisquick mix, sugar, milk, oil, vanilla and egg with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, stopping at least once to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Beat on medium speed for 4 minutes, scraping the bowl occasionally to be sure everything is mixed well.
- Pour the batter over the pears.
- Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and immediately place a heatproof serving plate over the pan and then flip upside down, leaving the pan over the cake for a few minutes.
- Remove the pan. Let the cake stand at least 10 minutes to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
**Next time I will substitute brown sugar for the white in the batter and also add 1/2 teaspoon mace, Penzey's baking spice, or cinnamon.
