Pineapple Bake

This one was inspired by a dish I tried along time ago on Easter.  It is a sweet and FATTY side dish that compliments the Easter ham very well.  Now remember when I said that this food blog will consist of 98% healthy recipes?...well consider this part of the 2% that is not healthy or good for you at all.  But seriously we all need a little something different at times.  And a holiday is a perfect time to make excuses and eat whatever you want....so do it!

Serves 10

The Ingredients
2 cans crushed pineapple, about 2lbs.
1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs
6 slices of white sourdough bread, cubed

The Process
1.  Grease a large shallow glass baking dish, and heat oven to 350 degrees.

2.  In medium bowl, mix pineapple, white sugar, flour, salt, and eggs.  Pour into baking dish.

3.  In medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat.  When butter is melted add cubed bread and stir until all butter is absorbed.

4.  Put bread on top of other mixture in dish and bake for 30 minutes.

5.  Take dish out of oven, turn oven to broil.

6.  Sprinkle brown sugar over top of bread, and put in oven for 1 minute or until slightly golden.

Try not to eat the whole dish, it is soooooo good!
