I love using the Land O Lakes® Butter in Half-Sticks especially for this bread pudding recipe because it’s the perfect size! These half-sticks are great for small-batch baking or cooking for two. Land O Lakes® Butter in Half-Sticks brings the pure and sweet cream taste in a pre-measured stick. I also love how the wrapped half-sticks keep the butter tasting fresher longer which is ideal for any recipe.
The fruity pineapple chunks give this bread pudding a sweet and fun surprise! You can also add the pineapple chunks on top of the bread pudding or add it to the bread mixture.
RECIPE TIPS AND VARIATIONS
This Pineapple Bread Pudding is delicious just as it is. If you’re looking to take it to the next level, check out these tips:
- Try an icing drizzle on top. You can also add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream with cinnamon.
- Any bread will work for this recipe. Some favorites to use are brioche bread, sliced wheat, sliced French bread and baguette. This is a great way to use up old bread because the bread will soak up the custard mixture and become moist again. Chopped nuts, raisins, shredded coconut and chocolate chips make a great addition to this bread pudding.
