A few years back I went home for the holidays and my Mom made something I’d never had before – Pineapple Stuffing. I wasn’t a big fan of stuffing – but this stuff was so different! It was almost like bread pudding.
Pineapple Stuffing is very easy to make but since it has eggs – I rarely eat it. Over the holidays we went to someone’s house for a meal so it was the perfect time to make it!
You cream the butter & sugar – I realized at this point that I didn’t have a mixer! But then I remembered I had just gotten one of those hand blenders and sure enough – it had a mixer attachment! I wasn’t sure it would be powerful enough – but as you can see – it definitely was! After creaming the butter & sugar – you add eggs one at a time.
And there you go – a piping hot dish of Pineapple Stuffing! It’s sweet and fluffy and a great side – almost like the sweet potatoes would be. I really enjoyed this and can’t wait for another reason to make it again! Easter isn’t too far off!

Laura says
Definitely sounds different & I like different !
Should the bread be fresh,day old or toasted ?
FoodHussy says
I used some bread that was a little old – I used Sara Lee Artesano cuz it's big and thick and hearty but still white bread. I do NOT use crunchy/toasted/super stale bread for this – i want it to be soft for the texture. The Sara Lee bread is great because it's thick – but I maybe have had it for a week or so. Let me know if you have any other questions or what you think of it. It's so good – I promise!!!
