Preheat oven to 350F. Drain the pineapple slices, reserving 2 T
syrup. In a heavy cast iron frying pan (10"), melt the butter over
medium heat. Add brown sugar, stirring until the sugar is melted.
Remove from heat, and arrange 8 of the pineapple slices on the sugar
mixture, overlapping the slices slightly around the edge of the pan.
Put one slice in the center. Place the walnut or pecan halves in the
center of each slice of pineapple. Arrange around the inside edge of
the skillet the remaining pineapple, cut in halves. Put pecans or
walnuts in the center.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.Add
shortening and milk. Beat 2 minutes at high speed or until mixture is
smooth.Add egg and reserved 2 T of syrup. Beat 2 minutes longer.
Gently pour cake batter over pineapple in skillet. Spread evenly
being careful not to disarrange the pineapple.
Place on center rack of oven and bake 40-45 minutes, or until cake
springs back to light touch. After the cake is done, let the skillet
stand on a wire rack 5 minutes to cool just slightly, and then loosen
edges with a small spatula. Place serving platter over the cake, and
turn upside down. Shake gently, and lift off skillet.
