Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan. This will ensure your pecan upside-down cake doesn’t stick to the pan.
2. Create the Pecan Layer
Melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat. Once melted, add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves, creating a delicious caramel sauce. Pour this mixture into the bottom of the cake pan, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Then, arrange the pecan halves on top of the caramel.
3. Prepare the Cake Batter
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, cream together the granulated sugar and eggs until they become light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix well. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the sugar and egg mixture, alternating with the milk, until you have a smooth batter.
4. Assemble and Bake
Carefully pour the cake batter over the pecans and caramel in the cake pan. Spread it out evenly to cover the pecans completely. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Let It Cool
Once the cake is done baking, remove it from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. This allows the caramel to set.
6. Flip and Serve
Place a serving plate upside-down on top of the cake pan. Carefully, but swiftly, invert the pan onto the plate. The pecan layer will now be on top, showcasing its delicious caramelized goodness.
