Craving Pineapple Upside Down Cake? Try my Instant Pot Pineapple Upside Down Bites, a new and tasty luscious dessert. These bite-sized cakes will melt in your mouth.
If you are a fan of the classic moist pineapple flavored dessert, you have to try this. The cherry adds the right amount of sweetness to this dessert and adds a pop of color.
Instant Pot Pineapple Upside Down Bites
If you have an egg bite mold, then you will want to try this out. I love my egg bite molds and I had to create a sweet treat for my kids the other day. So I whipped these up and they were gobbled up rather fast.
How Long Does It Take To Make Pineapple Upside Down Bites in Pressure Cooker
You will pressure cook for 12 minutes followed by a natural release. You do not want to do a quick release on these bites. Once you remove your egg molds let them set for 10 minutes. Then you can work at removing them from the molds.
How Many Egg Bite Molds Can You Cook In The Instant Pot At Once
You can cook two molds at once. Then remove those and then finish off the rest of the cake bites. Batch cooking is great cause the cakes need to sit in the molds for a bit once you remove so it allows time for the first set to cool for a bit.
How To Store Pineapple Upside Down Cake Bites
I like to store these cake bites in the refrigerator. Because of the fruit used I find it helps extend the shelf life of your cakes. They taste great cold but you can always warm them up by letting them sit out on the counter for 30 minutes or so.
Can I Use Fresh Cherries To Top Pineapple Upside Down Cake Bites
Yes, you are more than welcome to do a fresh cherry instead of maraschino cherries. If you use fresh cherries just make sure that you get the seed out of the cherry. Then you can use them to replace maraschino easily.

Do you but the lids on the egg molds or cover with foil? I'm worried about the cake being wet from water dropping off the cooker lid

Your recipe calls for 1/2 cup oil, but I don’t see where you use it. I’m confused.

Jiffy makes a yellow cake mix that only makes 1 layer. Use it, cut all the other ingredients in half, and you will get 2 egg bite trays instead of 4.
