Apply cooking spray and sprinkle flour in a fluted tube pan.
Add melted butter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
Sprinkle brown sugar over the butter.
Drain the juice of the pineapple and set it aside.
Slice the rings into two, then arrange them in a circular pattern in the pan as well as the maraschino cherries.
In a large mixing bowl, add the pudding mix and cake mix. Stir until well mixed.
