Plum Nectarine Pistachio Upside Down Cake

The first time I made this upside-down cake, I didn’t expect the combination of plums, nectarines, and pistachios to work so beautifully together, but it just does. The fruit stays juicy, the cake turns moist, and the pistachios add this subtle crunch that makes every bite interesting.
