Pineapple Upside-Down Pancakes

From DELISH after a posting on Instagram - I knew I wanted to try them and I was really good about sticking to most of the recipe! I didn't have pineapple rings on hand but I did have tidbits  - so used those and put them around as quickly as possible into a ring shape.  Kevin thinks he likes these even better than the nutella pancakes I made last week! Also we both agree that the tidbits provided plenty of pineapple! AND oh yeah I used pancake mix instead of the bisquick - just be sure to add the vanilla.

2 c. 

Bisquick

1 c. 

milk

2 

large eggs

1 tsp. 

pure vanilla extract

Butter, for pan 

10 

pineapple rings

10 

maraschino cherries (without stems)

1/3 c. 

packed brown sugar

Whipped cream, for serving

Maple syrup, for serving

1. In a large bowl, whisk together Bisquick, milk, eggs, and vanilla. 
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt about 1 tablespoon butter. Add about ¼ cup pancake batter to skillet and cook for 2 minutes, then add a pineapple ring in center of pancake and a cherry in center of ring. Sprinkle with a bit of brown sugar. Cook until edges start to bubble, 1 minute more, then flip and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until golden, 3 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter. 
3. Serve with whipped cream and maple syrup
