Pineapple Stuffing
I love this pineapple stuffing! Hot or cold it is so good! I am going to fully admit that I will eat this as leftovers if there are any left. It is so sweet and delicious!
It reminds me of a pineapple bread pudding that takes minutes to prepare. This sweet holiday side dish pairs perfectly with crockpot ham.
I am thinking about making it with leftover ham in it in the future to see how it tastes baked together.
This stuffing is one part side dish and one part dessert. You can serve it with the main meal or towards the end it is up to you.
Personally I like putting everything out on the table and letting people pick and choose what they want for their holiday meal.
We are all in on offering both sweet and savory options for everyone to choose from.
This is delicious pineapple stuffing is the perfect holiday side dish for Thanksgiving, Easter, or Christmas. Add it to your holiday menu for a quick and easy side dish.
It pairs perfectly with turkey or ham dinner. We hope your holiday season is amazing and filled with joy.
Ingredients Needed
- Butter - softened
- Large Eggs
- Sugar
- Crushed Pineapple
- White bread slices
Bread - We use plain white sandwich bread but you could easily use brioche bread, Hawaiian bread, or any soft bread.
Butter - You can use vegan butter to make this vegan.
Sugar - You can cut the sugar in half if you don't want as sweet of a pineapple stuffing. You can also use a 50/50 mix of white and brown sugar if you want a more caramel flavor.
Crushed Pineapple - You can add this drained or undrained depending on the texture you want for the stuffing. We normally drain pineapple juice from the crushed pineapple. Chunk pineapple can be used if you want more texture.
Recipe Varaitions - you can add in toasted sliced almonds on the top if you want a bit of a crunch in your stuffing. A bit of vanilla extract for sweetness.
For additional texture - you can add in ⅓ cup chopped pecans/walnuts. Stir in dried cranberries.
Equipment Needed
- Nonstick Cooking Spray
- Hand Mixer/Electric Mixer
- Large Mixing Bowl - We are big fans of this glass batter bowl that has a handle. It makes it easy to mix ingredients and keeps the mixing bowl steady on the counter.
- Spatula
- Knife/Cutting Board
- Measuring cups
- Casserole Dish
How to make Pineapple Stuffing
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees!
Step 1 - Add eggs, butter and sugar to a mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer cream them until they are nice and creamy.
Step 2 - Once the butter, eggs and sugar are creamy fold in crushed pineapple and mix. Stir to mix with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 3 - Add in bread cubes that are cut in 1 inch squares. Stir together until the bread crumbs are well coated.
Step 4 - Spray casserole baking dish with non-stick spray. Add pineapple casserole mixture and evenly spread in the pan.
Step 5 - Bake until golden brown. Remove from oven and enjoy!
Can pineapple stuffing be made ahead of time?
Yes, you can make this baked or unbaked depending on how you want to prepare it. Either way make sure it is tightly wrapped and air tight in the refrigerator.
If you are pre-baking it just put it back in the oven wrapped in foil and heat it up when you are ready to serve it.
