Scale
Ingredients
- 20 oz can crushed pineapple in juice, drained
- 3 eggs 2 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- several slices of fresh white bread, cubed*
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Beat eggs in a medium bowl and add in flour, sugar, and the drained pineapple. Blend well until sugar is dissolved and pour into a casserole dish.**
- Place cubed bread evenly over the top of the pineapple mixture. Spoon melted butter over the bread.
- Bake for 45 minutes or until the mixture is golden brown on top.
Notes
- (*)Depending on how thick the bread is that you are using, you may need from 2-5 slices of bread. Just make sure you have enough to generously cover the casserole. We have used both classic white sandwich bread and crusty Italian bread with equal success.
- (**)To save time cleaning, you can skip the bowl and mix the casserole right in a baking dish. Baking dishes can range from 9″ x 13″ bakers to shallow round or oval dishes.
