Pineapple bread pudding for breakfast.

I’ve made this Pineapple bread pudding recipe for my kids a few times. Some of the leftover bread pudding ends up as breakfast for my kids.
I can’t complain, bread pudding with pineapple chunks to bite into in the morning has to be better than plain old cornflakes and milk, right?
The best part is that if you make this overnight on the weekends, the kids can have breakfast right off the fridge, and you get to spend extra time in bed.

• Although it served as dessert, this pineapple dessert isn’t over-the-top sweet, which makes it a perfect brunch bread pudding casserole.
• It’s a no-fuss, one-bowl dessert that you can put together and serve within an hour. 
• Holidays(Ramadan, parties, Christmas, Thanksgiving)can be a time when you end up cooking for a large crowd, and this casserole can be a real time saver.
• This pineapple recipe makes a filling side dish for almost all types of meats. 
• It’s so easy to make, you can let your kids do it for you while you prepare other holiday dishes.
