Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set it aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, set it aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the sugar and eggs together until light and frothy.
Stir the melted butter into the sugar and egg mixture until well combined.
Add the crushed pineapple (including its juice) into the mixture and stir until evenly incorporated.
Gently fold the cubed bread into the pineapple mixture, ensuring all pieces are well coated but not overly broken down.
If desired, add ground cinnamon for a hint of spice and mix lightly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set in the middle.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a sweet side dish or dessert, optionally garnished with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
