Pineapple upside down cake

Annie, my badminton cum exercise buddy, bird photographer and next-door neighbor brought me a fresh pineapple. It was interesting to note that the fruit actually is a cluster of berries.

Cake ingredients are:

Pineapple chunks, small - 1 cup and 3 Tbsp
Sugar - 5 Tbsp
White bread - 2 slices
Organic eggs - 3
Milk powder - 3 Tbsp
Vanilla essence - 1 tsp

In a saucepan on low flame, stir  pineapple and 2 Tsbp of sugar. Stir until water evaporates from pineapple and it becomes sticky. Keep aside to cool. Powder bread. In a glass bowl, break eggs and add milk powder, essence. Whisk. Grease an aluminium cake tin. Spread pineapple on the bottom. Sprinkle the crumbs evenly. Press it down gently with the back of your fingers. Spread wet batter. Cover tin with a steel plate. Steam on medium flame, 20 minutes. Allow to cool. Turn out and serve slices.
