Food Hussy Recipe: Mom’s Pineapple Stuffing

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!
