Eggless Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Though I am late for Christmas..but I thought, I will post some of the cake recipes which I made and will be making for my friends and family in this season.
It is Egg less Pineapple upside down cake..its very easy and yummy to taste, I have'nt followed any particular recipe.  I have made slight variations to my basic vanilla sponge cake to suit pineapple cake and laid the pineapples and baked it.
It tasted yum and with the flavor of pineapple and real bites of crunchy pineapple makes it more flavorful and tasty.
I have used cannned pineapples, but you can use fresh sliced pineapples.
I was lazy to buy fresh ones and slice it. Canned pineapples were with me and it is handy.
They were already sliced. To make it look more appealing and crunchy, have placed some candied cherries in the middle of pineapples...
It can last upto a week in your refrigerator...
I have used the juice which was in the can or if using fresh pineapple you can juice it fresh...
