Pineapple Bread Pudding

Recipe Directions

Step 1: Prepare the Bread Pudding Mixture

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cubed bread and crushed pineapple, tossing gently to evenly distribute the pineapple throughout the bread.

Step 2: Make the Custard Mixture

  1. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  2. Pour the custard mixture over the bread and pineapple mixture, making sure to coat all of the bread evenly. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the bread to soak up the custard.

Step 3: Bake the Bread Pudding

  1. Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
  3. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

  1. Serve the Pineapple Bread Pudding warm, either on its own or topped with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  2. Enjoy the tropical flavors and comforting warmth of this delightful dessert!
