Sounds delicious only I'd have to replace the cherries maybe with
strawbarries because I don't like cherries. But my question is what's whole
milk and whole egg? Is it something organic?
Thanks

Pineapple Upside-Down Cornmeal Cake
3/4 cup whole milk
1 cup coarse ground cornmeal
4 ounces unsalted butter
8 ounces dark brown sugar, approximately 1 cup
6 slices canned pineapple in heavy syrup
6 maraschino cherries
1/3 cup chopped pecans, toasted
3 tablespoons juice from canned pineapple
3 whole eggs
4 3/4 ounces all-purpose flour, approximately 1 cup
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 3/4 ounces sugar, approximately 3/4 cup
1/2 cup canola oil
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a microwave-proof dish,
bring the milk to a boil. Remove the milk from the microwave
and add the cornmeal. Stir and let
soak at room temperature for 30 minutes. Set aside.
Melt the butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium
heat.
Once the butter has melted, add the brown sugar and stir until
the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from
the heat and carefully place 1 slice of pineapple in the center
of the pan. Place the other 5 slices around the center slice
in a circle. Place the cherries in the centers of the pineapple
slices and sprinkle the nuts evenly over the fruit. Drizzle
pineapple juice over top. Sift the flour, baking powder,
and salt into a medium mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the sugar to
the eggs and whisk to combine. Add the canola oil and whisk.
Add the cornmeal and milk mixture to the egg mixture and whisk
to combine. Add this to the flour and stir just until combined.
Pour the batter over the fruit in the skillet and bake for
40 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 30 minutes
in the skillet. Set a platter on top of the skillet and
carefully invert the cake. Serve.
"And the angel said unto them, "Fear not! For, behold, I bring you tidings
of great joy, Which shall be to all people. "For unto you is born this day
in
the city of David A Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a
sign unto you: Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, Lying
in
a manger.
--St. Luke ii. 10-12"
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
