Ingredients

• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 20 ounces crushed pineapple, drained
• 4 cups white bread, cubed
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish or a deeper 2-quart casserole dish and set it aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy.

Step 3

Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Fold in the drained crushed pineapple until evenly combined.

Step 5

Gently mix in the bread cubes until the bread is well-coated with the pineapple mixture. Be careful not to crush the bread too much to maintain the dish's texture.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set in the center.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This dish pairs wonderfully with baked ham or as a standalone treat!
