Elevate your dessert game with these delightful Pineapple Upside Down Biscuits—a tropical twist on a classic comfort food! Perfectly combining sweet and buttery flavors, these easy-to-make treats feature juicy pineapple rings, golden brown sugar, and luscious maraschino cherries nestled under a flaky biscuit crust. Using convenient refrigerated biscuit dough, this recipe comes together in just under 30 minutes, making it an ideal choice for busy weeknights or impromptu gatherings. The muffins are baked upside down, resulting in a beautifully caramelized topping when inverted—your guests will be wowed by both the taste and presentation! Serve them warm for an irresistibly gooey and indulgent dessert or brunch addition.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Spray the cups of a standard-sized muffin tin generously with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and light brown sugar together until well combined.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the butter and sugar mixture into the bottom of each muffin cup.
Cut the pineapple rings into halves so they fit better into the muffin tin. Place one half of a pineapple ring into each muffin cup on top of the sugar mixture.
Place a maraschino cherry in the center of each pineapple half.
Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Place one biscuit on top of each filled muffin cup, pressing gently to flatten slightly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 14-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Carefully run a knife around the edges of each muffin cup to loosen the biscuits. Place a baking sheet or large plate over the muffin tin, and carefully invert it to release the biscuits. If needed, gently tap the bottom of the muffin tin to help the biscuits release.
Serve warm and enjoy your Pineapple Upside Down Biscuits!
