Recipe Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Bread Pudding Mixture
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.
- 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
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
- 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
- Pour the bread pudding mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
- 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.
- Enjoy the tropical flavors and comforting warmth of this delightful dessert!
