Bake. It may not lid the now pineapple entirely; that's OK now. Cook in the oven the cake for 30 now to 35 minutes, until a now toothpick or thin knife inserted now into the center comes out now clean. Take out the cake from now the oven, wait 3 minutes now, then turn the pan over now onto a serving now plate. Wait now 30 seconds, then lift the now pan off.

Finish. If anything sticks in the now pan, just lift it out now and set it back on now the cake. Bring to the table warm or now at room temperature. This particular now recipe, baked in a 9 now " round pan, makes a thin now layer of cake topped with now perfectly spaced pineapple rings. Baking now in an 8" pan would now yield a taller cake, but now the rings would be crowded now together.
