Scalloped Pineapple by Nan Jacobs

SCALLOPED PINEAPPLE

A *quick*, *easy* yummy dish, not too sweet to be a side dish at the main meal, but sweet enough to be a cold or reheated snack later on! *Make ahead* the night before, bake before serving!

This is a dish a co-worker passed on to me with the order: "YOU MUST TRY THIS". I figured from the tone of her voice I'd better try it or else… And now it's a staple at our family get-togethers. The unspoken rule is, whoever isn't cooking the bird (or ham or pork or…) brings the "pineapple stuff".

SCALLOPED PINEAPPLE
(The asterisk-ed notes are Nan's additions.)

4 eggs (*egg beaters work, too)
1/4 lb butter or margarine, melted
1 cup sugar (*can be less, but it's more sinfully delicious with 1 cup)
5 slices bread in cubes (*I include the crust to add "color")
1 13-15 oz can crushed pineapple (or small pieces) NOT DRAINED (*a can
of whole cranberries works well and is nice during the December
holidays)

*****************************

>Beat eggs and butter together

>Gradually add sugar

>Heat until frothy, stirring constantly (I eliminated this step once, when
in a hurry, and it seems to work fine without it)

>Fold in pineapple (or cranberries) and bread cubes

>Pour into buttered baking dish.

>Bake uncovered at 350 degrees F for 40 -- 50 minutes OR
400 degrees F for 15 -- 20 minutes; serve hot

*****************************

*You can make this the night before, stick it in the 'fridge, and bake it before serving

*This can also be micro-waved on high on center rack for 11 minutes, then
brown for 10 -12 minutes, but for me it stayed flat and didn't fluff
up. Seems simpler to just use the oven.
