Baking a whole cake seems crazy when there is only one person who is going to eat any of it. Any time I make something it will go bad before I can finish it. I've started trying to bake things in smaller sizes so that I can have it once and not have to worry about eating the rest of it. Ramekins are perfect for this. The only problem is that baking things from scratch usually means that you will have way more than you need for one person. So I cheated a little bit and used biscuits. Whatever.
Recipe:
1 ring of canned pineapple
1 T brown sugar
1 T corn syrup
1 splash of pineapple juice (or water)
1 tsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 canned jumbo biscuit
Combine sugar, syrup, juice, butter, and vanilla in a saucepan and heat until it bubbles. Remove from heat. Place pineapple ring in a ramekin and top with the sauce until it comes up around the side of the pineapple. Stretch a bisuit out a bit and place it over the pineapple. Place the ramekin in a preheated oven (check biscuit wrapper for temperature - mine said 350) and bake for 5 minutes more than the directions said. Mine called for 15 minutes so I baked it for 20. Remove from the oven and turn it out on a plate immediately.
