you were thinking pineapple, weren't you?
upside down cake has been turned upside down. figuratively.
here's the recipe:
i used a full clamshell of strawberries, half white half whole wheat flour, 1/2 tsp of cardamom, and a square pan. joy's is prettier, but i'm happy with the strawberry-ness of the cake. the whole wheat gives it a heartier feel than cake, which is kind of delicious. i can't taste the cardamom, i could put more next time, but maybe it's just that my cardamom is old and weak. the pan was a little too big, but overall, pretty good cake. not we're having a party cake, more like coffee cake, but not as sweet as some coffee cakes. but not quite like bread. a bread-cake. a coffee-bread. i don't have any more or better descriptors. :( but i'm keeping the recipe, and am thinking i'd like to try it out with other fruits, maybe blackberries...
i had mine with a little espresso. a little (or a large) dollop of whipped cream pushes this baby into dessert territory. mmmmmmmmm.
