Notes
- Make sure to use a solid base cake tin to prevent the topping from leaking out.
- Melt the butter and sugar together until they are fully combined and pour the mixture into the cake tin before arranging the pineapple rings on top.
- Use fresh pineapple if possible, as it will give the pudding a better flavor.
- If using canned pineapple, make sure to drain it well before using to prevent excess liquid in the pudding.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy to ensure a light and airy sponge.
- Be careful not to overmix the sponge mixture once the flour and baking powder are added, as this can result in a tough texture.
- Use an electric whisk to make the sponge mixture for the best results.
- Serve the pudding warm with cream or custard for a delicious dessert.
