Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch or similar-sized baking dish.
If using fresh pineapple, peel, core, and chop into bite-sized pieces. Drain canned pineapple if using.
In a saucepan, combine pineapple, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and lemon juice (if using). Cook over medium heat until bubbly, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup sugar. Add milk and stir until smooth.
Pour melted butter into the prepared baking dish. Pour batter over the butter evenly—do not stir.
Spoon the warm pineapple mixture over the batter. Do not stir.
Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, if using.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
Let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
