And I will admit, I was soo proud. I really can not think of the last time I baked an upside down anything, and this just came out amazingly! Make it again, oh yes!! with different fruits.. oh hell yes!! Pineapple is a must, Peaches and Raspberries would be amazing, even Nectarines, I am thinking limitless possibilities in my little mind!!!

1 1/2 tsp baking powder
3 Tbsp Margarine
1/4 c brown sugar
1 c white sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 c milk
4 black plums, pitted and thinly sliced (yup so didn't use all 8, I sliced up 5 of them though lol)
3/4 c blueberries (I had fresh ones I threw in the freezer recently, and simply sprinkled them around)
Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9 in cake pan. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In the prepared pan, combine 3 tbsp margarine and brown sugar. Place pan inside the preheated oven. until the margarine melts and begins to bubble. Set aside. In a large bowl, cream together the 1/3 c margarine and 1 cup white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then the vanilla. Beat in the flour mixture alternately with the milk, mixing just until incorporated.
Arrange plums around the edges of the prepared pan, overlapping slightly. Distribute the blueberries in the center. Pour batter into prepared pan, covering fruit completely. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool 15 min before serving.

That looks wonderful.
I enter a pineapple upside down cake in the KY state fair here. Last year I did blackberries and it was a flop! This looks great though.
