2. Pineapple Upside Down Pancakes
Ingredients

1 ½ cups milk
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup butter, 1/4 cup (55g) melted, plus additional for frying
¼ cup brown sugar
1 ½ fl oz spiced rum, optional

3. Add the remaining butter to small sauce pan over medium heat.
4. Once butter is melted, add brown sugar, the remaining pineapple juice, and rum (optional).
5. Bring ingredients to a boil allowing for the sugar to melt and caramelize. Once mixture is smooth and has the consistency of syrup, remove from heat and set aside.
6. Melt a small amount of butter in a frying pan over medium heat and add a slice of pineapple. Cook pineapple ring until lightly caramelized on one side, about 2 minutes, before flipping it.
