Ingredients
- 20 oz Canned crushed pineapple (including juice)
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 4 whole Large eggs
- 6 slices White bread (cubed, crusts removed)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or equivalent casserole dish.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the entire can of crushed pineapple, including its juice, into the mixture and stir until combined.
Gently fold in the cubed white bread until all pieces are evenly coated and the mixture is well combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Optionally, sprinkle ground cinnamon over the top for added flavor.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as a side dish or dessert.
