How To Make Pecan Pie Upside Down Cake
Chop the pecans, then add them to a pan with butter, light corn syrup, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook just until the butter has melted, then remove from the heat.
Next grease a bundt pan and pour in the pecan mixture. Next prepare the cake batter according to the directions on the box.
Pour the cake batter over the pecan mixture in the bundt pan then bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
Once the Pecan Cake is done, let cool for about 10 minutes, then flip the cake out onto a cake dish.
