In a small saucepan, melt together butter and brown sugar over low heat. Stir frequently until well combined.
Spray jumbo muffin pan with non-stick spray. Then spoon brown sugar mixture evenly into the bottom of each section. (Approx. 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. each.)
Place a pineapple ring into each section, pressing gently to fit. Then add a cherry to the center of each ring.
NOTE: If you only have a standard sized muffin tin, try using pineapple tidbits or trim the rings to fit.

Pour batter, evenly divided, into each section. (Approx. 1/3 cup each.)
Bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then loosen with a butter knife along the edges.
Place a piece of waxed paper or a cookie sheet on the counter, to catch any drips. Then invert the muffin tin onto a wire rack. Enjoy!
