The Southern Upside Down Pecan Cake holds a special place in my heart, reminiscent of family gatherings and holiday dinners where the smell of caramelized pecans and buttery cake filled our farmhouse kitchen. This cake, baked in a simple jelly roll pan just like my grandmother used to, is a testament to the timeless tradition of Southern baking. With its rich history rooted in using simple, wholesome ingredients, this cake is perfect for those who want to bring a piece of Southern charm to their table.
This delightful cake pairs wonderfully with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. For a more traditional touch, serve it alongside a cup of hot coffee or sweet tea. Complement the rich flavors with a light salad or roasted vegetables, adding balance to your meal.
