Pineapple Upside Down Cake

I know I’ve never baked a cake on a grill, but we did just that!

Ingredients:

⅓ cup shortening

½ cup sugar

1 egg, separated

½ cup pineapple juice

1 ¼ cup flour

2 ½ teaspoons baking powder

⅛ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

4 Tablespoons oleo

¾ cups brown sugar

Sliced pineapple

Directions:

Beat egg white and set aside. Cream shortening and sugar. Beat egg yolk and add vanilla and pineapple juice. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add liquid and dry ingredients alternately. Last, fold in beaten egg white. Meanwhile, melt oleo in a large 10-inch frying pan. Add brown sugar, and when melted, arrange sliced pineapple on top. Pour batter over and bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes. Turn upside down on a plate. And yes, this is great on the Traeger. A friend of my daughters’ gave us the recipe (It was her mother-in-law’s recipe) and she said they cooked it on the grill. We were intrigued, and YES, we HAD to try it!  Thanks, Marissa!
