pineapple, flour, butter, eggs, and cinnamon combined. Great accompaniment to ham or pork roast. This dish comes from some of the aunts who live in Pennsylvania, where my husband’s family hails from. A must-have for Christmas dinner!

I made this for Christmas. Everyone enjoyed it, and I think it’s a keeper in my family.
Make sure its crushed pineapple. Cut sugar in half. Can add some cinnamon and or vanilla to pineapple.
One of our favorites with ham!
Great side.
The family loved this recipe…I only used 1/2 cup sugar and it was just sweet enough for us. I also dusted the top with sugar and cinnamon before baking. Our new favorite!
Loved it! Have made it several times just as the recipe calls. Delish!
If you use crushed pineapple in heavy syrup it will be far better tasting.
My mom made this every year at Christmas and Easter – a treat to have with our ham dinner. My kids request it at EVERY holiday meal.
Great side to my glazed ham. I cut back a bit on the sugar , used fresh pineapple instead of canned, and it still was very good. My sister’s recipe is similar, but calls for bread. I prefer this one, as its less carbs. Not the healthiest recipe, but oh, so good! We used the leftovers on our ham sandwiches the next day.
I did cut the sugar in half like many reviewers suggested, but I don’t think that’s what made us dislike it. Next time I would just add more flour to this and make a pineapple cake instead.
No changes. Baked in a 8×11 Pyrex dish. Cut into squares to serve. Nice with baked ham dinner.
CUT SUGAR IN HALF
Awesome, simple, love it…. And i made mine using gluten free flour
I posted this recipe nine years ago. I have cut the sugar in half after reading earlier reviews. That is why I love this site. Sometimes other cooks can help improve an already good recipe. I also give top a good sprinkling of cinnamon Still make every holiday I have ham or pork roast Glad so many enjoy.
What a delicious side dish and incredibly easy to make too! I made a pork tenderloin with it and it was a hit with my husband and two year old son. I sprinkled cinnamon all over the pineapple bake and just mixed it up in the pan. So glad I didn’t use just a pinch. It gave it such a wonderful spice flavor. I used saigon cinnamon. It’s sweet with a little kick.
This is really good if you love pineapple like I do. And although it seems like a lot of sugar when you’re mixing it, it’s not too sweet. 10/10 would make again!
We love this dish! We make it often however we change it a bit. We only use 1/2 cup of sugar and TWO cans pineapple. Leave amounts of everything else the same & it’s delish! Still plenty sweet! Thanks!
I tried this dish for the first time tonight and it turned out wonderfully. I added a little vanilla to render the taste a little closer to a cake (as I was serving it as a dessert) and it was a smash hit with all who tried it. (I received many compliments and several people asked for the recipe.) I’ll definitely make this again! Thanks for posting. 🙂
I thought this recipe was wonderful, I wanted something with pineapple that was quick and easy. I didn’t know I was supposed to drain the juice so the bottom was slightly soggy, but I added vanilla and thought it tasted amazing.
Made this for a different side dish with our baked ham dinner today . I cut the sugar in half as some reviewers suggested. Thought I had crushed pineapple, but it was tidbits; turned out to be a little chunkier. This was well received by all and just a bit leftover for lunch tomorrow. Next time, I will try with the crushed pineapple as directed. Thanks, Santa Maria Cook, for a delicious new recipe to try.
I don’t always give five stars but this one deserves it. Easy, kid friendly, at least for my kids. Few ingredients is a plus and not a lot of prep work. I baked mine in a large pie pan. It is a bit shallow that way but it worked out fine. Good for any season and it was a good match for the salty ham we had. I cut the sugar down to 3/4 cup. That was the only ingredient change. .
