Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Hope no one from the weight loss thread sees this. :ph34r:

My daughter and I were in the mood for a treat tonight and decided to make pineapple upsidedown cake. It turned out so good that I HAD to share how we did it.

Start with an 8 x 12 glass cake pan and put 3 Tbs. of butter in, then put it in the oven while it's preheating to 350. When the butter is melted and bubbly, take it out of the oven and sprinkle 1/3 C brown sugar in the bottom of the pan. Arrange a whole can of chunk pineapple (well-drained) on top of the butter/brown sugar.

Mix up the Gluten-Free Pantry Cake and Cookie Mix according to the directions for cake, but put in an extra 1/4 C milk. (You'll need eggs, oil and milk - we used rice milk.) Pour the cake batter over the pineapple. Bake at 350 for 28-30 minutes.

Let cool for 5 minutes and then invert onto a cooling rack. Try to let it cool a bit more before eating so it doesn't burn your tongue.

Liz,

Talk about great minds.....I do the same thing! The only thing I do different is I use the pineapple juice from the can for the liquid called for in the recipe.

Glad you enjoyed it--and don't worry about the calories :D

Yum! and so easy. My husband brought home a white cake mix(I usually buy choc.) and I've been trying to decide what to do with it because I'm not crazy about frosting. I may try it in cupcake form or maybe this will be what I take to church tomorrow.. Now you've got me thinking!

Ooh, that sounds good. Next time we'll have to try that. The cake is long gone now, the boys finished it for breakfast :huh: .

      Thank you, @Oldturdle, I greatly appreciate that. I've always been a curious kitty. I wanted to figure out why I didn't feel well because I knew it wasn't all in my head like they told me.

      Migraines ran in my family, on my father's side. All of my female first cousins on that side, and our grandmother suffered from Migraines. Grandmother died in 1984 so we do not know if she ever would have been diagnosed with celiac disease. However, all 4 of us cousins were diagnosed with celiac disease between 2003 and 2007.

      Scott Adams makes an excellent point about the possible pending scope with biopsy being the reason you were advised to keep eating gluten, @NCalvo822! You might want to get some clarification about that. What you don't want to happen is to go gluten free and then have to go back on gluten at some point in order to produce valid scoping/biopsy results.

      It's possible that your doctor wants you to do an endoscopy to confirm the diagnosis, and if that is the case that could be why they don't want you to go gluten-free before that procedure is done. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends...

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Thank you, @Oldturdle, I greatly appreciate that.  I've always been a curious kitty.  I wanted to figure out why I didn't feel well because I knew it wasn't all in my head like they told me.  It pleases me to be able to help others in the same boat. Yes, alcohol prevents the absorption of thiamine and stops thiamine from working properly.  This can lead to Wernicke's Encephalopathy and Korsakoff syndrome, where thiamine deficiency severely affects brain function.  Doctors are trained to look for the triad of symptoms: opthalmoplegia (nystagmus), ataxia, and altered mental state.  However, not all people present with all three symptoms.  Many (80%) don't get diagnosed until their autopsy.   Alcohol has to be processed through the liver.  If there's insufficient thiamine, Alcoholic Fatty Liver develops.  In thiamine insufficiency, calories are turned into fat and stored in the liver instead of being turned into fuel ATP for the body.  Alcohol also prevents absorption of calories from food and other nutrients.   Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver can develop in nonalcoholics, storing excess calories as fat in the liver.  However, excess calories can also be turned into fat and stored in the abdomen, hence the increase in obesity.   In Celiac disease, we don't absorb sufficient nutrients like thiamine from our food.  If we eat a diet high in carbohydrates, we can run out of vitamins like thiamine and the other Bs needed to turn those calories into fuel ATP.  For every extra thousand calories of carbohydrates consumed, our bodies require 500 to 1000 mg of additional thiamine to process them into fuel, ATP,  the "bitcoin" of energy in our bodies.   Wernicke's encephalopathy can occur in non-alcoholic people, but doctors can miss the symptoms because the patient doesn't drink, and doesn't have all three symptoms of the classic Triad of symptoms seen in Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.  My doctors failed to diagnose me with thiamine deficiency, Wernicke's Encephalopathy,  because I didn't drink alcohol, although I had ataxia and an altered mental state.   Doctors don't think outside the box!   I went home and took thiamine.  I had improvement in my symptoms within an hour.  High doses of thiamine are required to correct Thiamine deficiency.  Thank God I had studied nutrition, microbiology, and the research of Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  ("Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition" is Drs. Lonsdale and Marrs' book.).  And I've kept learning and sharing that knowledge to help others.   It's wonderful you've been supplementing with vitamins so long!  Don't worry about the bright yellow urine.  That's excess Riboflavin B 2.  Interesting note, Riboflavin glows under black light!  Those lights used to detect where pets have soiled outside of the box, that's the Riboflavin in urine glowing.  Riboflavin can be put in sugar syrup when making rock candy and it will glow under black light.  Fun for Halloween. I hope you feel better, @Oldturdle.  If I can be of further help anytime, you can send a personal message here.  Thanks for reading my posts.

However, all 4 of us cousins were diagnosed with celiac disease between 2003 and 2007.  The dermatitis herpetiformis rash is a blistery, super itchy rash.  When they do the biopsy they take it from non-involved skin that is next to the rash.  If done wrong, the results may not be accurate.  Have you ever had one done? In that case, I agree that maybe she has you still on gluten for a biopsy.  But, if she has not ordered it nor referred you to a gastroenterologist, then I would question her advice.
