Coconut Upside Down (Mini Sponge) Cake. This Banana Coconut Upside Down Cake has a layer of bananas and coconut with a brown sugar sauce infusing every bite. Technically this is a dessert but for some reason, probably because bananas are involved, I know I'll find a way to serve it up for breakfast or brunch. In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, eggs, and oil.
Place heatproof serving plate upside down onto pan; turn plate and pan over.
Upside-down cakes are classically made in a cast-iron skillet because it gives the cake a crisp edge, cooks it evenly, and keeps it moist.
These Mini Pineapple Upside-Down Cakes are just like the classic dessert, but in mini form!
