"Wonderful recipe!! I've done this twice and both times it's been perfect. I've compared this to many other recipes and I find you have recipes that just add the whole egg or the other kind that separates the egg... beats up the egg whites. It's all about studying the recipe and having all ingredients ready to go.
1. Get the pan/parchmentpaper ready, then prep the pineapple, do the carmel in a large saute' pan and brown the pineapple slices, set aside to cool.
2. Mix dry ingredients, then whip the egg whites.
3. All along the butter is softening and ready to mix with the sugar, eggs, vanilla. You have the other ingredients pre measured and ready, add them and then putting it together is so much easier if you take the time to prepare. Baking time is not one hour... try 50 minutes.. and toothpick test to be sure. Wait atleast 5 minutes then run knife along edge and invert onto your serving platter."
