This is a "Paula Deen" recipe that my brother gave to me. I haven't tried it yet but DH loves pineapple so it probably won't be long before I'm whipping up a batch of these. I think this would be a great dish to make with your children.

PAULA DEEN'S PINEAPPLE UPSIDE DOWN BISCUITS (LIGHTER VERSION)



Paula Deen's Pineapple Upside Down Biscuits (Lighter Version) image

Here is a lighter version of Paula Deen's Pineapple Upside Down Biscuits recipe. I love the simplicity of the recipe. It doesn't taste like your grandmother's pineapple upside down cake, but it is a delicious salty & sweet dessert that you can make with the kids! (I used a low calorie sweetener that measured cup for cup like sugar.)
