HAWAIIAN PINEAPPLE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl. Add coconut milk, eggs, and oil; stir to combine. Stir in pineapple and banana until just combined; do not overmix.
• Melt brown sugar and butter together in a saucepan over medium heat. Add pineapple tidbits and 1 tablespoon reserved pineapple juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until slightly thickened, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Preheat a griddle to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Pour 1/4-cup scoops of batter onto the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles form, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until set, about 5 minutes more.
• Serve pancakes with the pineapple topping.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE-DOWN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Pat the pineapple rings dry with a paper towel, then transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.
• Heat a large nonstick pan or cast-iron griddle over medium-low heat. Add the butter.
• While the butter is melting, sprinkle one side of the pineapple rings with the brown sugar. Place the pineapple rings sugared-side down in to the pan, leaving enough space around them to allow for the pancake batter to be poured over top. Cook until the sugar caramelizes and the pineapples turn light brown, about 5 minutes.
• Place a maraschino cherry into the center of each pineapple ring. Carefully pour about 1/2 cup of pancake batter over each pineapple ring to make 4 pancakes. Cook until the batter starts to bubble and take on a dull look, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip the pancakes and cook on the other side for about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate and serve.

PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN PANCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• To a large mixing bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Mix until thoroughly combined.
• Create a small well in the middle of the dry ingredients. Add milk, half of the reserved pineapple juice, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Whisk until ingredients combine to form a lumpy batter. Set aside while you make the pineapple syrup.
• Add the remaining butter to small sauce pan over medium heat. Once butter is melted, add brown sugar, the remaining pineapple juice, and rum (optional).
• Bring ingredients to a boil allowing for the sugar to melt and caramelize. Once mixture is smooth and has the consistency of syrup, remove from heat and set aside.
• Melt a small amount of butter in a frying pan over medium heat and add a slice of pineapple. Cook pineapple ring until lightly caramelized on one side, about 2 minutes, before flipping it.
• Once flipped, fill the core of the pineapple with 1-2 maraschino cherries before pouring about ¼ cup (30 grams) of the pancake batter over.
• Cook until the edges start to set and the top begins to bubble, about 2 minutes, before carefully flipping the pancake--revealing the pineapple underneath. Cook for an additional 90 seconds to 2 minutes until the pancake is cooked through.
• Store cooked pancakes in a 200˚F (90˚C) oven until ready to serve.
• Serve pancakes warm with reserved pineapple syrup.
• Enjoy!

Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon chopped pineapple on top of each one. Cook until the edges appear dry and the surface of the batter is no longer glossy, 2 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle a pinch or two of sugar onto each pineapple and flip. Cook until pancake is cooked through and pineapple is caramelized, another 2 to 4 minutes. Place pancakes on a plate in a warm oven and repeat the process to cook remaining pancakes.
