Notes
- You can substitute unsalted butter if that’s all you have, but make sure you add about 1/4 tsp of salt to balance the sweetness.
- Make sure to use pineapples in heavy syrup for the best flavor. The extra sugar will help the top of the casserole brown nicely as it caramelizes.
- Be sure to remove the crusts from the bread prior to cubing it.
- Spray the casserole dish liberally with nonstick spray prior to pouring in the pineapple mix so it doesn't stick.
